The date, legends, and Lady Liberty portrait are all identifiable. For early Morgan dates like the 1879, circulated examples carry genuine historical character — these coins passed through real hands during the Wild West era of American history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy the 1879 Morgan?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 1879 Morgan Dollar was struck in the very first year of the Morgan series — making it one of the most historically significant dates in the entire run. Designed by George T. Morgan, this coin debuted just 14 years after the Civil War. A circulated 1879 Morgan is an affordable way to own a first-year-of-issue classic with nearly 150 years of American history behind it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eShips securely in its protective authenticated holder.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"80hD Designs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52543307252014,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0968\/7642\/9614\/files\/IMG_1040.jpg?v=1788318278","url":"https:\/\/shop.80hddesigns.com\/products\/1879-morgan-silver-dollar-authenticated-vg-collectors-edition","provider":"80hD Designs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
