This coin was minted 20 years after the first year of issue coins were being minted in 1878. The series abruptly stopped in 1904 because a shortage of silver prevented the minting of more coins. The Pittman Act was a solution to this problem because by buying and melting hundreds of millions of dollars worth of silver, the U.S. government was then able to continue the series into 1921, which for the first time, included the Denver Mint striking Morgan Silver Dollars as well. The beautiful and detailed images of Lady Liberty and an American Bald Eagle were instantly praised when the series began and are still admired to this very day, which is why these coins hold such tremendous numismatic value alongside the precious metal content each coin has.
