Every strand of hair and fold in her cap is precisely defined, highlighting Golden State Mint’s dedication to fine craftsmanship.
On the reverse, a majestic eagle spreads its wings in a powerful stance, clutching arrows and an olive branch — traditional emblems of defense and peace. The inscription “IN GOD WE TRUST” arches above, while the mint’s insignia and the round’s weight and purity encircle the design. The balanced layout and bold relief lend the round an impressive depth and authenticity that honor the legacy of the original Morgan Dollar.
