Obverse

On the obverse side, the 1900-O Morgan Dollar Coin features Lady Liberty in a left-profile relief. It is widely believed that Morgan used Anna Willes Williams as his model for this design. Liberty is depicted wearing a Phrygian cap along with a laurel wreath and a coronet crown, all surrounded by 13 stars.

Reverse

The reverse side of the 1900-O Morgan Silver Dollar showcases a heraldic eagle, which notably does not include a national shield in Morgan’s interpretation. The eagle is presented in a front-facing position, wings spread wide, clutching arrows of war in one talon and an olive branch representing peace in the other.

History

As the 20th century began, the Morgan Dollar was issued for the 23rd time in 1900. The coins were struck at the Philadelphia Mint, the New Orleans Mint, and the San Francisco Mint. In total, nearly 28 million Morgan Dollars were minted that year, with New Orleans producing the highest amount at 12.59 million coins. Philadelphia was not far behind with 8.83 million coins, while San Francisco issued just 3.54 million coins.
