The 1921-D Morgan Silver Dollar represents a pivotal moment in American numismatic history, being the sole Morgan Dollar struck at the Denver Mint and the final year of this iconic series. Graded a remarkable PCGS MS66, this exceptional specimen showcases the last hurrah of the Morgan Dollar design by George T. Morgan. Struck during a transitional period in 1921, this coin emerged from the Denver Mint's first silver dollar production, which began in May of that year under Superintendent Thomas Annear. With a substantial mintage of 20,345,000, the 1921-D is notable for being part of the Pittman Act recoinage, replacing silver dollars melted during World War I. The coin exhibits exceptional preservation, with lustrous surfaces and sharp details typical of the shallow-relief dies used in this final production year.

Composed of 90% silver and 10% copper, the coin weighs 26.73 grams and measures 38.1mm in diameter.
