Description: Early Silver Dollars (1794-1795), Designer - Engraver: Robert Scot, Metal Composition: 89% Silver - 11% Copper, Diameter: 39.5 mm, Mass: 26.96 grams
This popular coin was the first silver dollar and was launched in 1794. It remained in circulation for many years after that. The details to check for striking include the hair on the obverse as well as the eagle’s body and wings on the reverse. If there is luster remaining on a specimen of a grade EF-40 through AU-58, this indicated that it is a rarity. MS coins are scarce.
