The modern Morgan and Peace silver dollars revive two historic designs in .999 fine silver, beginning with the 2021 centennial issues.

These are modern numismatic products, not continuations of the 1878–1921 and 1921–1935 circulation checklists. The local issue catalog is intentionally empty until normalized records are verified.

A centennial tribute becomes an ongoing program

Congress authorized 2021 coins marking one hundred years since the last original Morgan dollar and the first Peace dollar. The Mint later continued the pairing in uncirculated, proof, and reverse-proof products.

Classic inscriptions and compositions are adapted to modern .999 fine silver specifications. Collectors should compare each product's finish, mint attribution, limits, and packaging rather than treating every release as the same coin.

Obverse, reverse, and the details that identify the type

Confirm the major design, date, and mint mark before studying smaller die differences.

The main portrait and date

The Morgan program recreates George T. Morgan's Liberty portrait; the Peace program recreates Anthony de Francisci's radiant Liberty.

Denomination, subject, and mint mark
