The story

The Morgan Dollar: the coin Congress was forced to mint

In 1878 the U.S. Treasury did not want to make silver dollars. Congress made it do so anyway — to prop up the price of silver for Western mining states. The result was the Morgan Dollar, a coin that nobody really needed and almost everybody now collects.
