During 1878 to 1904 and 1921, the United State Treasury Department minted Morgan Dollars named after its designer George T. Morgan. The weight and purity of every coin were 24.057 grams and 0.900 respectively. These coins enjoyed high demand in pre and post minting time as they yield equal silver bullion. Four renowned mints were engaged for the minting of these coins in USA.
