1878 Morgan Dollar Reverse of 79 - XF+ Detail, Some Luster - 1878 Variation Rev. 79

Own a pivotal piece of U.S. Mint history with the inaugural-year 1878 Morgan Silver Dollar featuring the scarce Reverse of 1879 die variety. When George T. Morgan’s iconic dollar debuted in 1878, the Mint rapidly experimented with and refined the eagle's reverse. This "Third Reverse" design corrected the anatomical structure of the bald eagle to show seven tail feathers alongside a refined, rounded breast and slanting top arrow feathers, setting the permanent standard for the rest of the famous series.
