About this Coin

The 1921 Morgan Dollar marks the historic conclusion of America's most collected silver dollar series, minted following the passage of the Pittman Act to replenish the nation's silver reserve.

While displaying full structural design detail and soft radial cartwheel lustre, light wiping and surface hairlines categorise this coin as "Uncirculated Details – Cleaned". Third-party grading services (such as PCGS or NGC) designate coins with these surface characteristics as Details, offering collectors an authentic, high-detail 100+ year-old US silver dollar with great flash in hand at an accessible price point.

At Loose Change Coins, we go beyond visual inspection: this coin has undergone our complete verification process—weighed to 26.75g, ping-tested, and electronically verified on a Sigma Metalytics Precious Metal Verifier to guarantee its 90% silver purity. Housed directly in an archival Intercept capsule, it is ready for immediate display or long-term collection storage.
