Since 1878 was the initial year for the Morgan's production, they had a lot to work out, in order to mint the perfect silver dollar. The 1878 7tf rev 78 Morgan exhibits an eagle with 7 tail feathers but its chest isn't proportionate to its body. The eagle, on the reverse, exhibits a small, sunken-in chest that isn't a realistic portrayal of the powerful bird the US is so proud of. In 1879, the US Mint corrected the problem and gave the eagle a more robust chest. These Morgans, that were the pioneers of the famous silver dollar, are held at a high esteem in the coin collecting world. Your 1878 7tf rev 78 Morgan is a popular rarity in the coin world and is on every coin collector's bucket list. Your coin is in good-very good condition, presenting heavy wear but date and images are still readable.
