Morgan Silver Dollar G-VG 1885

Your 1885 Morgan silver dollar was minted in Philadelphia but does not carry a mint mark. The Philadelphia Mint was the first mint to ever be established in the US. Our Founding Fathers desired for the nation to have its own sense of independence and identity, international commerce being a big part of that. Morgans in good-very good condition usually consist of a very worn and smooth surface, with image details lacking. As the Morgans were being minted by the millions, other events were taking place that have also gone down in the history books. In 1885, the first Japanese people arrived in Hawaii and president, Chester A. Arthur, dedicated the Washington Monument. The Statue of Liberty arrived in the NYC's harbor and the first sky-scraper was built in Chicago. Also, a billed was signed to form the Niagara Falls State Park and the three year long depression finally ended.
