1904 Morgan $1 (1904 Morgan Dollar) PCGS PF64 CAC. This proof 1904 Morgan Dollar has light devices with darker toned fields. Colors of light and dark tan, russet, and silver-grey are noted. The strike is full, as expected for a proof coin, and the surfaces are clean and free of distracting marks or imperfections. The grade of PF64 is confirmed by CAC indicating that the coin meets stringent standards for quality within the grade.

Dollar coins designed by George T. Morgan were issued from 1878 to 1921. They show a close head of Liberty facing left. She wears a headband inscribed LIBERTY. In her hair are cotton, corn, wheat, and tobacco. She wears a modified Phrygian cap and is surrounded with the motto E PLURIBUS UNUM, thirteen stars (seven left and six right), and the date. The reverse shows an eagle with wings raised looking left. In its talons are arrows and olive branch. A wreath is below and the motto IN GOD WE TRUST is above. Except for the eagles wing tips, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and ONE DOLLAR circumscribe the design.

George T. Morgan was born on January 4, 1845 in Birmingham, England. Morgan attended the Birmingham Art School and won a scholarship to the South Kensington Art School. He worked as an assistant under the Wyons at the British Royal Mint. In 1876 Morgan immigrated to the United States and was hired as an assistant to William Barber at the United States Mint. Morgan reported directly to Mint Director Henry R. Linderman, whose office was moved to Washington D.C. in 1873, no doubt upsetting Engraver Barber and his son, Assistant Engraver, Charles Barber. Morgan was involved in the production of pattern coins from 1877 until his death in 1925. He designed varieties of the 1877 half dollar, the Schoolgirl dollar of 1879, and the Shield Earring coins of 1882. He became the seventh Chief Engraver in 1917 with the death of Charles E. Barber. Today, Morgan is most known for his design of the Morgan Dollar of 1878 to 1921. A recently found, although never released design was for the $100 Gold Union.

In its population report as of July, 2011, CAC has confirmed 7 PF64 from 1904 with 12 better.
