1890-O Morgan Silver Dollar, 1936-D San Diego Half Dollar, and More at Gold Standard Auctions
Jan 21, 2024 13:30 ESTIn its upcoming sale, Gold Standard Auctions will present US and foreign coins, as well as currency. Leading the catalog is an 1890-O Morgan silver dollar graded MS63 by PGA. An iconic piece of early American coinage, the Morgan silver dollar is designed by George T Morgan. The reverse of the coin depicts an eagle with wings spread, and the obverse shows Lady Liberty with modern features, which was a significant departure from the prevailing coinage of the time. In its claws, the eagle holds arrows and an olive branch. Atop the eagle’s head is the American motto, “IN GOD WE TRUST.” The United States Mint issued Morgan Silver Dollars between 1878 and 1904, as well as in 1921.
A 1936-D half-dollar also leads the listings. A San Diego variety, the 1936-D half dollar served as a commemorative coin for the California-Pacific International Exposition that took place in San Diego from 1935 to ‘36. Designed by Robert Aitken, this coin was minted in Denver as a Business (MS) strike in 90% silver and 10% copper, with a mintage of 30,092. Other notable lots in this sale include an 1887 Victoria gold proof coin and a set of 21 Walking Half dollars from 1939 to 1947.
