The obverse of the 1921 S Morgan Silver Dollar features the iconic design of Lady Liberty in profile, created by George T. Morgan. Lady Liberty is depicted wearing a Phrygian cap adorned with the word "LIBERTY" on the headband. Her hair is rendered in intricate detail, flowing beneath the cap and crowned with agricultural symbols of cotton and wheat, representing America's agricultural wealth. Surrounding Liberty are thirteen stars symbolizing the original thirteen colonies, the Latin phrase "E PLURIBUS UNUM" ("Out of Many, One"), and the coin's date, "1921." In BU condition, this coin retains its original mint luster, with sharp, crisp details that highlight the artistry of Morgan's design.
