The Morgan Silver Dollar is one of the most well-known silver dollars in US history. It was first minted in 1878 and continued in production until 1904, with a one-year revival in 1921. The US Mint used multiple facilities over the years to produce this coin, including Philadelphia, New Orleans, San Francisco, Carson City, and later Denver. Today, Silver.com offers 1881-S Silver Morgan Dollar Coins in certified condition.

  • Ships in a protective plastic slab!
  • 4th release of Morgan Silver Dollars!
  • Final mintage of 12,760,000 coins at San Francisco!
  • Limited availability of certified coins!
  • Consists of .7734 Troy ounce of actual silver content.

  • Graded Mint State 64+ by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation.
  • Lady Liberty featured on the obverse.
  • Heraldic eagle on the reverse.

In 1881, the Morgan Dollar was struck at four different mints across the United States. The San Francisco Mint led production with 12.76 million coins, while Carson City had the lowest output with only 296,000 coins. Philadelphia and New Orleans also struck significant numbers, with 9.163 million and 5.708 million coins, respectively.

All of the 1881-S Silver Morgan Dollar Coins available here are graded MS64+ by NGC. These coins show above-average mint luster with minor contact marks, some of which may appear in the focal areas of the coin. The MS64+ grade indicates a coin that is of higher quality than a standard MS64 but falls just short of MS65 standards.

The obverse of the 1881-S Morgan Dollar Coin showcases a left-profile portrait of Lady Liberty. Designed by George T. Morgan, this image debuted in 1878 and shows Liberty with a Phrygian cap, laurel wreath, and coronet, surrounded by 13 stars.

On the reverse of the 1881-S Silver Morgan Dollar, you’ll find an image of the heraldic eagle. This bald eagle, designed by Morgan, is shown with wings extended, holding arrows in one talon and an olive branch in the other to represent both peace and strength.

For questions about this coin, you can contact Silver.com at 1-888-989-7223, use our web chat, or email us directly.

Is my information secure?

We take data security very seriously. When you place an order with silver.com, your information is transmitted with the utmost SSL (secure socket layers) 256-bit protection. We also never have access to your credit/debit card details, as they are securely communicated directly to the payment processor (Authorize.net) and never retained by Silver.com. For this reason, we also don't process credit/debit card orders over the phone, as it is the least secure way to process those transactions.

In addition, all VISA and MasterCard orders undergo an additional step of user authentication - the respective Verified by VISA or MasterCard SecureCode programs. Upon completing checkout with a VISA or MasterCard credit/debit card, you may be promoted for additional details to confirm your identity and protect our customers against credit card fraud.

Finally, the data we do retain in our system, including but not limited to name, address, phone number, and order history, is never shared with or sold to any unrelated third-parties. Please review our Privacy Policy for full details on our data security measures.

Please note, the Silver.com website accepts orders 24/7/365, so you can always lock in live product prices and make purchases outside of business hours.

Do you charge sales tax?

We are required to collect sales tax in certain states. You can review your states sales tax policy here: https://www.silver.com/taxes. You should always consult with a tax adviser for specific advice in your area.

Where does your spot price come from?

We use a live, up-to-the-second spot price feed supplied by Xignite.com, a worldwide leader in the data supply market.

Are your products actually in stock?

Yes. We are one of the few bullion dealers in the industry who only deems products "in stock" when we have them on-hand and ready to ship immediately. In the instance of a presale item, we denote that the product is on presale and the estimated shipping date. While we make the best efforts to hit presale dates, the dates are only estimates, given we cannot control mint production issues and/or carrier dealyes.

Why are multiple prices listed?

We offer a 4% discount to "cash" paying customers - with paper check, bank wire, and bitcoin payments being defined as cash. On many products, we are also able to offer volume discounts to customers purchasing large quantities of the same item. All volume pricing is laid out in the chart on the product's description page, as well as in the cart.

When do I lock in my price?

All prices are locked in at the time of purchase. Credit/debit card, PayPal, BitCoin, Ethereum, and Ripple orders are paid at the time of checkout, while paper check and bank wire orders require a credit/debit card on file to lock in your pricing while we await your payment. Please note, paper check and bank wire orders will NOT result in a charge to your card - we simple maintain the card on file while we await full payment by your selected payment method.

Do you ship internationally?

We currently only ship to addresses in the United States, including APOs.
