Lot 515
1794 Flowing Hair Dollar. SEGS graded AU-50. Mostly well struck on a slightly rough planchet with the central portions nice and bold. We note some weakness around the first few stars as well as the corresponding portion of the reverse. We also note a series of light hairlines that can be seen on the obverse under magnification. Interestingly, very few adjustment marks are present and the entire coin is overlaid with steel-grey and light gold toning. The rims on both sides show a series of light marks and therefore we would grade this example Extremely Fine 40.
The 1794 silver dollar is an American classic, it is the first year of issue and our monetary unit, was struck in extremely limited quantities and the total known population is between 130 and 140 coins in all grades.
Estimated Value $125,000 - 150,000.
