Regarding the numismatic community, some people collect coins because they see it as a great future investment, some admire the beauty of the coins, and others like collecting a piece of history that can never be imitated. Regardless of the reason, the Morgan Silver Dollar is easily one of the most influential series known to man, especially here in the U.S. This holds true 142 years ago in 1878 when the series began production after George T. Morgan had designed the coin with Lady Liberty’s beautiful face on the obverse side of the coin and a powerful American Bald Eagle on the reverse side of the coin. 122 years ago, the 1898-P Morgan Silver Dollars were released with a mintage of 5,884,000, the largest quantity struck for the 1898 year of the series. The great thing about Philadelphia minted Morgan Silver Dollars is the fact that these coins are almost always the most common and readily available in circulation because they usually have the highest quantity produced and thus the most affordable prices compared to the San Francisco, New Orleans, and Carson City minted coins. The 1898-P Morgan Silver Dollar for instance, is for sale by Bullion Shark in brilliant uncirculated condition for only $87.75, a tiny price to pay for a beautiful piece of American history. This explains why the Philadelphia minted Morgan Silver Dollars are usually bought and sold the most frequently, as they are so easy to obtain and sell off.
