To me the Morgan dollars design is one of the most beautyfull coins ever made.
It is easy to imagine outlaws playing poker with rolls of Morgan silver dollars.
I am considering starting to collect these nice old coins, and this morgan would be a good start, it is in good quality i think, looks mint to me

there you will be able to see how many was made, and how rare they are.
the years you mention, are minted in large quantities, and therefore not really rare, what will make such coins rare or expensive is high quality, there are 10 ms grades in mint coins, real value starts at ms65, that is a grade difficult to find,higher grades then ms65, is where the high value starts.
there are several gradingspecialists who grade and slab coins, those can be PCGS, ANA,etc. look them up and get informed about coins value and grades.
hope i was helpfull, it is not as easy as it seems
