The Morgan Dollar has been one of the most collected coins in American numismatic history since it first appeared in 1878, and SilverTowne’s replica medallion brings that legacy into a modern bullion format. Custom minted at SilverTowne Mint in Winchester, Indiana, in partnership with A-Mark Precious Metals, this 1 troy ounce .999 fine silver round pairs a faithful reproduction of George T. Morgan’s original design with a practical stackable rim built for today’s collector.
Key Features:
- Purity and weight: 1 troy ounce, .999 fine silver
- Metal type: Silver
- Obverse design: Proof-like Lady Liberty portrait with “LIBERTY” on her coronet, “E PLURIBUS UNUM” above, surrounded by a beaded border, ring of stars along the lower rim, and reeded outer edge
- Reverse design: Heraldic eagle clutching arrows and an olive branch within an open wreath, inscribed with “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “ONE TROY OUNCE,” and “.999 FINE SILVER”
- Special feature: IRA-approved silver round
The obverse reproduces Lady Liberty in sharp left-facing profile, her hair rendered in flowing waves drawn back and crowned with wheat, cotton, and a coronet bearing “LIBERTY.” A beaded inner border frames the portrait, with “E PLURIBUS UNUM” arcing along the upper rim. Rather than carrying a date, stars continue around the lower rim, staying true to the medallion’s replica character while giving the design a clean, uncluttered finish. The proof-like surface brings out strong contrast between Liberty’s portrait and the surrounding field.
The reverse centers a bald eagle with wings fully spread, each primary feather individually struck. The bird grips a bundle of arrows in one talon and an olive branch in the other, framed by an open wreath. “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA” runs along the upper arc, “ONE TROY OUNCE” sits above the eagle’s head, and “.999 FINE SILVER” closes the lower inscription. The reeded edge wraps the full circumference, the same feature that makes these rounds stack cleanly and store securely in standard tubes. The stackable rim design, introduced in 2015, has become a practical standard among serious collectors managing large holdings.
Originally debuted at the 2017 FUN Show, this medallion carries collector provenance alongside its bullion credentials. Its IRA-approved status makes it a legitimate option for investors looking to add physical silver to a self-directed precious metals IRA.
For buyers who want classic Morgan Dollar imagery, genuine .999 fine silver content, and a format built for practical storage, this round checks every box. Add it to your cart today.
