Throughout the majority of the 1880s, the Philadelphia Mint, situated in the northeastern region, and the New Orleans Mint in the American South were the primary sources of Morgan Silver Dollar production. In 1885, the Philadelphia Mint minted an impressive 17.787 million coins, while the New Orleans Mint contributed an additional 9.185 million coins.

Comparing these figures with the mintages from the Carson City Mint and the San Francisco Mint reveals a significant disparity in production volume. In 1885, the Carson City Mint minted a modest 228,000 coins, while the San Francisco Mint produced 1.497 million coins.

The obverse of all 1885 Silver Morgan Dollar features the iconic Lady Liberty. Designed by George T. Morgan, this captivating portrayal depicts Liberty in left-profile relief, donning a coronet crown and a laurel wreath in her hair. A Phrygian cap adorns the back of her head, symbolizing the spirit of freedom.

On the reverse of each 1885 Morgan Dollar Coin, you will find the majestic Heraldic eagle of the United States. Also designed by Morgan, this awe-inspiring representation presents the bald eagle in front-facing relief. With its talons clutching the arrows of war and the olive branch of peace, the eagle spreads its wings wide, omitting the US national shield.

These 1885 Silver Morgan Dollar Coins are available in MS65 condition. Coins with this grade display an attractive, high-quality mint luster, showcasing minimal scattered contact marks or possibly two larger marks.

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.
