The correct name for this coin is "Morgan dollar" (note the spelling - A's, not E's) after its designer George Morgan. The image is of course the head of Lady Liberty rather than Mr. Morgan!
The Morgan design was minted from 1878 to 1904, and then again in 1921. It's characterized by a portrait of Miss Liberty facing left, while the back has an eagle with outstretched wings and holding arrows and an olive branch in its claws.
There's a picture of an 1879 Morgan dollar at the Related Link.
1921 was a so-called transitional year for dollars. When the denomination was revived that year the new Peace design wasn't ready in time so the Morgan design was struck for the first 11 months of the year. A small run of Peace dollars was made in December, at which time the Morgan design was discontinued. The Peace design was then exclusively used until 1935.
Sorry, silver dollars don't have genders.

Better tell that to the US Mint as I am holding one in my hand as we speak.
Look for the mint mark.
It will have "CC" in the mint mark position, on the reverse side above the DO in DOLLAR.
All US 1966 half dollars are 40% silver, containing about $3.32 worth of silver at the time of writing.
An 1879 "Silver Dollar" is a Morgan dollar.
It would have very little scratches or other dirt on the coin.
