Nova Constellatio Patterns - Coins

The Nova Constellatio Patterns are a series of experimental coins produced in the late 18th century, specifically in 1783-1785, under the authority of the Continental Congress. These patterns were designed by the engraver Joseph Wright and feature a unique design that represents the earliest attempts to establish a national currency for the United States. The most notable among these is the five hundred dollar piece, which showcases the theme of liberty and the newly formed union. Due to their limited production, Nova Constellatio Patterns are highly sought after by collectors and are considered significant artifacts of American numismatic history.
