US Mint Flowing Hair 2024

The 2024 US Mint Flowing Hair series stands as a tribute to one of the earliest chapters in American coinage, honoring the 230th anniversary of the original 1794 Flowing Hair Dollar. With a design rooted in the artistry of Robert Scot, the coins in this collection echo the bold vision of a young nation—Liberty’s profile framed by fifteen stars on the obverse, and an early iteration of the heraldic eagle encircled by a laurel wreath on the reverse. The high-relief striking technique brings depth and dimension to every detail, allowing light to play across Liberty’s features and the eagle’s outstretched wings, much as it might have in the hands of those who first held the dollar over two centuries ago. Crafted in .9999 fine gold, each piece in this limited mintage—just 17,500 in total, with a select 230 featuring a distinctive “230” privy mark—offers a tangible connection to history, blending the precision of modern minting with the timeless appeal of classic American motifs. These coins are more than collectibles; they’re enduring symbols of resilience, liberty, and the enduring spirit of craftsmanship.

Collectors and enthusiasts often find the Flowing Hair 2024 releases especially meaningful, not only for their rarity but also for their capacity to evoke the formative years of the United States. Whether displayed in a personal collection, presented as a milestone gift, or set aside as a family keepsake, these coins have a presence that resonates beyond their gold content. They appeal to those who appreciate the intersection of artistry and history—individuals who might recall seeing a similar design in a museum or a textbook, or who value the story behind every coin they acquire. For gift-givers, the Flowing Hair motif offers a thoughtful way to mark significant occasions: graduations, retirements, anniversaries, or patriotic holidays. The autumn release aligns with a season of reflection and gratitude, making these coins fitting tokens for commemorating achievements or expressing appreciation. Some may choose to pair a gold coin with the 2024 Flowing Hair Silver Medal, creating a set that highlights both the richness of gold and the accessibility of silver, while honoring the same historic design. In every case, the Flowing Hair 2024 series invites its holder to connect with American heritage in a way that is both deeply personal and unmistakably authentic—an artifact of the past, reimagined for the present, and preserved for the future.
