Silver of the French Quarter

About This Set: The "New Orleans Morgan Dollars, Circulation Strikes (1879-1904)" is a comprehensive collection of all Morgan Silver Dollars bearing the "O" mint mark, which were struck at the historic New Orleans Mint during its second operational period after the Civil War. This set captures a significant era of the American "Wild West" when large silver dollars were the preferred currency. The set is known for the historical appeal of its mint origin, the only Southern U.S. Mint to strike the Morgan Dollar. Coins from this mint are often noted for having a generally weaker strike quality compared to other Mints, making a sharply detailed example a numismatic challenge and a notable find.
