Morgan Silver Bullion
The United States began minting the American Silver Eagle Silver Dollars in 1986. These coins are .999 fine silver bullion and are the official silver bullion coin of the U. S. However, when people talk about investing in “silver dollars” they usually are not talking about the American Silver Eagle coins, as beautiful as they may be or any of the other silver dollars the United States has minted over the years. They are referring to the Morgan Silver Dollar. To find out the advantages of accumulating silver coins as an investment over gold, platinum or palladium, we first need to know a bit of history.
