Description
The 1900 (O) Morgan Dollar was struck at the New Orleans Mint as a dollar in the Morgan Dollars 1878-1921 series. The U.S. Mint produced 12.6 million examples, making this ranked 3rd of 4 mint variants by mintage, with 34% of production. The obverse features Liberty facing left wearing a Phrygian cap adorned with wheat and cotton, encircled by stars and the reverse displays an eagle with outstretched wings clutching an olive branch and arrows, surrounded by a wreath. Produced during the Progressive Era, when President Theodore Roosevelt championed a renaissance in American coin design that produced some of the most beautiful coins ever struck. The New Orleans Mint operated from 1838 to 1909, producing coins valued for their Southern historical provenance. Estimated market value ranges from $197 to $2.8K depending on grade and condition. Struck in 90% silver, 10% copper, weighing 26.73 grams, 38.1 mm in diameter, with a reeded edge. Cataloged as PCGS #7266.
