Flowing Hair Dollar
An important piece of early American history, the Flowing Hair silver dollar design was used for just two years. There is a considerable price spread between 1794 and 1795 examples. Total mintage for the 1795 silver dollar of 203,033 may not impress you much. It suggests that, while certainly a better coin, it is probably available. A super rare “flowing hair” silver dollar from 1794 goes under the hammer soon and is expected to fetch in excess of $10 million! This would make it the most valuable coin in the world. And that’s not the end of the story. This wavy-haired lady could in fact be the face of America’s very first coin.
