Smithsonian Institution "America's Lost Masterpiece" George T. Morgan Proposed 1876 Design 2014 $100 Union 5 Oz. Silver Private Issue Ultra Cameo Gem Proof Coin in NGC Slab W/Original Velvet Cover - George T. Morgan was best known for the Morgan Silver Dollar, but his true masterpiece never came to light during his lifetime. Before designing the Morgan Dollar, Morgan envisioned a 5 ounce, $100 coin known as a Union. No one knew about this idea until a sketch was discovered by a coin expert at the Smithsonian Institution. Knowing that this $100 coin would have been the grandest American coin of all time, the directors of the institution agreed to share this lost masterpiece as a privately issued special edition. This $100 Union proof has been struck from 5 ounces of .999 fine silver and is certified by NGC. This remarkable proof is truly a piece of history, and is a great addition to any fine coin collection. This coin comes in an NGC slab and in the original velvet cover.
