In 1921, the United States Mint resumed coining silver dollars for the first time since 1904. When silver dollar coining started in January, the historic Morgan Dollar design had been revived and issued. A stunning total of nearly 44 million coins were struck between January and mid-December 1921. On December 28, 1921, the US Mint started production of silver dollars with the new Peace Dollar Liberty design and would go on to strike just over 1 million of the coins before year’s end.
All of these 2021 2 oz Silver British Virgin Islands Morgan and Peace Dollar Coins are available with a plastic capsule to protect the coin and a black presentation box from the Pobjoy Mint to house the coins. There is a Certificate of Authenticity available with each coin. These coins also have an ultra-high-relief strike with greater visual depth in the background and improved 3D relief on the design strikes.
On the obverse of 2021 Silver BVI Morgan and Peace Dollar Coins is a depiction of Queen Elizabeth II. Her Majesty is shown here in a design exclusive to the Pobjoy Mint that shows Her Majesty in right-profile relief with her shoulders included in the design relief. The design also features the George IV State Diadem.
The reverse field of the 2021 2 oz Silver Morgan and Peace Dollar Coin comes with the Liberty portraits from both the Silver Morgan Dollar and the Silver Peace Dollar.
