Morgan Silver Dollar Very Fine Condition 1879-S

While the Morgan silver dollar was beginning its second year as currency, other events were taking place that would also go down in history. In 1879, the Specie Resumption Act took place, stating US currency notes are valued the same as gold since the Civil War. Also, Thomas Edison completed the light bulb invention and introduced the concept of incandescent lighting. Deadwood, South Dakota experienced a major forest fire, leaving two thousand people homeless. Your 1879-S Morgan was minted in San Francisco and carries the "S" mint mark and is in very fine condition. It has been said that Morgans minted in San Fran have comparably better quality than the others. The San Francisco Mint also goes down in history as one of the most successful US Mints to produce the Morgan silver dollar. Owning a coin with the "S" mint-mark is not only a valuable choice but it also goes down in history.
