{{/presale}} {{#promotion_on}}On October 15, 1794, the United States Mint struck the country’s first-ever dollar coin. Called the Flowing Hair Dollar, this historic piece displayed Liberty in a right-facing portrait with her hair flowing naturally, designed by Robert Scot, the Mints very first Chief Engraver. To celebrate the 230th anniversary of this important release, the US Mint has issued a special gold coin in 2024. You can now find certified 2024 1 oz Proof American Gold 230th Anniversary Flowing Hair Coins available at BGASC.

Obverse
The obverse of the 2024 Proof American Gold 230th Anniversary Flowing Hair Coin features Robert Scots vision of Liberty. The right-profile portrait shows Liberty with her long hair flowing freely. Scot served as the US Mints first Chief Engraver from 1793 until 1823, and he left a lasting mark on early American coin design with his work on the Flowing Hair Dollar.
Reverse
The reverse of the 2024 1 oz Proof Gold 230th Anniversary Flowing Hair Coin revives the original eagle imagery. This side displays a small eagle surrounded by a wreath that gracefully circles it. Additionally, youll find traditional edge lettering on the coin reading HUNDRED CENTS ONE DOLLAR OR UNIT.
History
The Flowing Hair Dollar, made between 1794 and 1795, is known as the very first official silver dollar minted by the US government. Libertys flowing hair on the obverse reflected freedom and youth, while the reverse depicted a small eagle framed by a delicate wreath. Though the coin was only produced for a short time at the Philadelphia Mint, with about 160,000 coins struck, it played a major part in early US coinage history.
