Best Answer

The Morgan Silver Dollar Coin is a very special. The design was issued from 1878 to 1904 and in 1921. It's considered to be one of the most beautiful American circulation coins ever issued. Many common ones are still relatively inexpensive at $35 to $50, while the rarest can be worth over $100,000.

These coins were made of 90% silver and 10% copper, and contain about 0.77 troy ounces of pure silver. The finest known examples of the Morgan Silver Dollar can sell for nearly $1 million.
