Struck from 90% silver, this coin features George T. Morgan’s iconic Liberty portrait on the obverse and a bold eagle design on the reverse. The 1880-O issue is notable for its relatively soft strike quality, a characteristic often seen in New Orleans Mint Morgans, though examples in AU/BU condition still retain strong detail and original mint luster.
