1923 Morgan dollar not a Morgan?

"Morgan" isn't something like "kleenex" or "scotch tape" that once referred to a specific product. It describes a specific type of silver dollar, and is named for the artist George T. Morgan. Morgans were struck from 1878 to 1904 and again in 1921, so you could not have a 1923 Morgan dollar. All dollars struck that year are Peace dollars, again named for their design.


How do you know if you have a Morgan silver dollar?

A Morgan silver dollar is a large dollar coin, on the front there should be a depiction of Lady Liberty's face wearing a small crown saying "LIBERTY" on it the reverse features an eagle with olive branches and arrows and a wreath at the bottom. They were dated 1878 to 1904 and also made in 1921. The only other coin that could be easily confused with a Morgan dollar is a Peace Dollar of which some were also minted in 1921, they have the same size, but the liberty on a Peace dollar looks like there are rays coming out of her head and the reverse of a Peace dollar has an eagle perched on a rock engraved PEACE.
