Flowing Hair Dollars were the first silver dollar coins issued by the United States Mint, produced in 1794 and 1795, with the 1796 issue being particularly significant. The design features a depiction of Lady Liberty with flowing hair on the obverse and an eagle on the reverse, symbolizing freedom and strength. These coins are highly sought after by collectors due to their historical importance, limited mintage, and iconic design, making them a key part of early American numismatic history. The 1796 Flowing Hair Dollar is especially rare and valuable, with only a limited number believed to be in existence.
