In 2021 the US Mint decided to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the last year of the "Morgan Dollars" and the 100th anniversary of the first "Peace Dollar" with limited release on .999 Fine (0.858 troy ounce) Silver Morgan and Peace dollars dated 2021 with several mint mark and privy mark options.

History

The Morgan Dollar was designed by Mint Chief Engraver George T. Morgan (1845-1925) and was minted from 1878 to 1904, and again in 1921. This iconic silver dollar represented the country’s westward expansion and industrial development in the late 19th century.

In December 1921, the new Peace Dollar was approved by Treasury Secretary Andrew Mellon, replacing the Morgan Dollar and marking peace between the U.S. and Germany. More than 1 million of the coins had been struck by the end of the year. The new silver dollar was designed by renowned Italian American Sculptor Anthony de Francisci (1887 - 1964) and minted until 1935.
