The 1888 Morgan dollar was struck in 90% fine silver over 115 years ago at the main U.S. mint in Philadelphia - the birthplace of America`s coins! Until 1996 all dies used to produce U.S. coins were manufactured at the Philadephia Mint (some are now made at the Denver Mint). This popular silver dollar is affordable in all grades, struck in the year which saw the introduction of the Kodak camera and National Geographic magazine!
