U.S. Coin Values: Morgan Dollars.

About Morgan Dollar $1 Type 1921

The 1921 Morgan dollars were struck 17 years after the previous rolled off production lines in 1904, a time when demand for Morgan dollars began shrinking and available reserves of silver bullion became scarce. The 1921 Morgan dollars came about as a result of the Pittman Act of 1918, under which more than 270 million Morgan dollars were melted and later struck with the 1921 date. The return of the Morgan dollar in 1921 was a one-year affair, as the new Peace dollar was to be struck beginning late in the year. On the whole, 1921 Morgan dollars are quite common through the Gem levels, while PLs and DMPLs are much scarcer but available for a price.

About CDN Prices

All CDN prices are based on proprietary market knowledge and technology developed by CDN Publishing, LLC.

CPG® prices represent retail levels. Collectors should refer to CPG values as a starting place for their negotiations, or auction bid reference.

Greysheet/Greensheet prices are wholesale market levels for collectible coins/paper money intended to indicate what a dealer, or wholesale, buyer would pay for the described item in the specified grade. Greysheet/Greensheet represent "sight-seen" values based on a buyer's in-hand review. The actual value can be more or less than this depending on factors including eye appeal and market timing.

Bluesheet (NGC & PCGS) prices represent the highest sight-unseen offers to buy on dealer networks like CDN Exchange. In many cases, there are no active sight-unseen buy offers, so CDN looks to the recent lowest market values for such an item. For this reason, Bluesheet values typically represent the floor of the market for the specified item. CDN only tracks Bluesheet on certain items.

CAC prices are for U.S. coins that meet the standards of the Certified Acceptance Corporation. You can learn more about CAC on their web site.

Price movement is indicated for price changes in the last 30 days.
