The 1884 Morgan Silver Dollar, struck at the Philadelphia Mint, boasts a substantial mintage of 14,070,000, placing it among the more common dates within the Morgan series. Designed by Assistant Engraver George T. Morgan, this coin features the iconic Liberty head and an eagle with outstretched wings, emblematic of late 19th-century American pride and prosperity. Known for generally better strikes than some branch mint counterparts, Philadelphia's issues from this year can display excellent luster and detail, which are favored by collectors. As a non-key date, this coin offers an accessible entry point for completing a Morgan Dollar series, while its well-preserved surfaces and strong eye appeal enhance its desirability in the numismatic market.
