Government Melts Over 270 Million Silver Dollars
But collectors get an unexpected second chance
It’s a crime.
Most Americans living today have never held a hefty, gleaming U.S. silver dollar in their hands.
Where did they go? In 1918, to provide aid to the British during WWI, the U.S. government melted down nearly half of the entire mintage—over 270 million silver dollars. And these weren’t just any silver dollar—they were America’s largest circulated coin, the beloved Morgan Silver Dollar.
Created by famed American coin designer, George T. Morgan, the Morgan
Silver Dollar features Lady Liberty’s radiant profile and a majestic eagle, symbols of American strength and prosperity. Since their inception in 1878, these 90% fine silver coins jingled in the pockets of famous (an infamous) Americans like John D. Rockefeller, Teddy Roosevelt, Jesse James and Al Capone. Today, Morgan Silver Dollars are the most collected vintage coin in America.
Lady Liberty takes a Final Bow
Just three years after the massive meltdown, the government gave the Morgan Silver Dollar a final chance to shine. In 1921, facing a serious shortage, the mint struck Morgan Silver Dollars for one more brief, historic year. Today, the last-ever 1921 Morgan Silver Dollar belongs in the hands of collectors, history buffs, or anyone who values the artistry and legacy of this American classic.

Saved from Destruction, but Bound for Extinction
Less than 45 million Morgans were minted at the Philadelphia Mint in 1921. No one knows how many of those still exist, but it’s been estimated that as few as 15% of all the Morgan Dollars ever minted have survived to the present day. And the number grows smaller with each passing year. The 1921 Morgan Silver Dollar is the last of its kind. But you can get one now before they’re only a memory.
