The Tails Out Morgan Dollar, also known as "The Gambler's Ring", is a true classic. It's simple yet bold threfore it's one of the most sought after coin rings around. In addition to it's timeless look this coin ring makes a statement with it's size and style. In other words, this coin ring sets the standard for men's rings.
Above all, I love making the Tails Out Morgan Dollar because I know the customer is going to love it too. I get emails from customers weekly telling me how much they love their ring because they get so many compliments on it.
The Morgan Dollar was made from 1878 to 1904 and then again in 1921. The coin's designer was George T. Morgan so that's where it got it's name. The obverse (heads) side of the Morgan Dollar Coin Ring shows a profile portrait representing Lady Liberty and the reverse (tails) has an eagle with wings outstretched making it a classic coin ring.
A woman named Anna Williams was used for the face of the coin but she was not an actor. Morgan said, “Miss Williams’ profile was the most nearly perfect he had seen in England or America.” Since she was not a model she agreed to the job on the condition that her identity would remain secret so he was promised anonymity. In the end, she did not stay anonymous for long because her secret was out and she received numerous offers for acting jobs and public appearances but she declined.
