Obverse

The obverse of the 1888 Morgan Dollar showcases a lovely left-profile relief of Lady Liberty. This design was inspired by Anna Willes Williams, and Liberty is depicted wearing a Phrygian cap, adorned with a laurel wreath and a coronet crown, encircled by 13 stars.

Reverse

On the reverse side, the 1888 Morgan Silver Dollar features a heraldic eagle, designed without a national shield. The eagle is shown in a front-facing position with its wings spread wide, clutching both arrows and an olive branch, symbolizing its role in war and peace.

History

In 1888, the Philadelphia Mint was the primary producer of Morgan Dollars, striking an impressive 19.183 million coins. The New Orleans Mint produced 12.150 million coins, while the Carson City Mint remained inactive for the third consecutive year. San Francisco contributed 657,000 coins to the total mintage that year.
