2024 NGC MS-70 1 oz US 230th Anniversary Flowing Hair Silver Medal – Flowing Hair Label
To commemorate a defining moment in American numismatic history, the U.S. Mint issued a silver medal honoring the 230th anniversary of the Flowing Hair Dollar—the first silver dollar officially struck by the federal government.
Originally released on October 15, 1794, under the Coinage Act of 1792, the Flowing Hair Dollar symbolized the young nation’s emergence onto the global economic stage. Designed by Robert Scot, it features a portrait of Lady Liberty with flowing hair, representing freedom and national identity. With only 1,758 examples struck in 1794, the original coin remains one of the most important and elusive pieces in U.S. coinage history.
This modern commemorative silver medal faithfully recreates the historic obverse and reverse designs and is struck from 1 troy ounce of .999 fine silver.
SD Bullion offers the 2024 1 oz US 230th Anniversary Flowing Hair Silver Medal graded MS-70 by NGC and encapsulated with the Flowing Hair Label.
