label: Description
content: U.S. silver dollars minted between 1878 and 1921 are often called Morgan dollars because they were designed by U.S. Mint engraver George T. Morgan. They are no longer in circulation and have become very popular with coin collectors—so popular, in fact, that they are one of the most collected historic U.S. coins. Jack Lee collected one of the finest sets of Morgan dollars ever assembled. This one dollar coin struck in New Orleans in 1888 is from his private collection.
