2. Morgan Silver Dollar
The United States 250th Anniversary Morgan Dollar commemorates the Semiquincentennial of American independence with a masterful reinterpretation of this beloved coin design. The Morgan Dollar was designed by Mint Chief Engraver George T. Morgan (1845 – 1925) and minted from 1878 to 1904 and again in 1921. This iconic silver dollar represented the country’s westward expansion and industrial development in the late 19th century. Blending historic artistry with contemporary symbolism, this Morgan Dollar is more than a coin—it is a tangible reflection of America’s past, present, and enduring promise for the future.
This special one-year issue of the Morgan Dollar bears the dates “1776 ~ 2026” and a unique Liberty Bell privy mark with the numeral “250.” The obverse features Liberty in profile. A cap, flora, and a crown incused with the word “LIBERTY” adorn her head, while 13 stars, “E PLURIBUS UNUM,” “1776 ~ 2026” encircle her and anchor the design in a sweeping narrative of 250 years of independence.
The reverse depicts an eagle with outstretched wings clasping arrows and an olive branch, accompanied by a wreath. Reverse inscriptions are “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “IN GOD WE TRUST,” and “ONE DOLLAR.”
3. Peace Silver Dollar
Issued in celebration of 250 years of American independence, this Semiquincentennial Peace Dollar reimagines one of the nation’s most iconic symbols of hope.

Enhancements for the 250th anniversary include: The dual date “1776–2026” and the “250/Liberty Bell” privy mark anchors the design of independence. The Mint reintroduced the Peace Dollar in 2021 to celebrate its 100th anniversary.
