About Flowing Hair High Relief Coins
The 230th Anniversary Flowing Hair High Relief Gold Coin pays homage to the Flowing Hair dollar coin, issued on October 15, 1794, by the U.S. Federal Government as America's first dollar coin. Under the guidance of Mint Director David Rittenhouse, Mint Chief Engraver Robert Scot designed the first silver dollar coin with government oversight of the process.
The high relief gold coin is a tribute to the first Flowing Hair dollar, with modern reproductions of the original obverse and reverse designs.
Coin Design
The obverse (heads) design is a faithful rendition of the first dollar coin struck by the U.S. Federal Government. The portrait of Liberty faces right and is surrounded by 15 stars, representing the fifteen states that had ratified the Constitution by 1794. The design retains the "LIBERTY" inscription and includes an updated "2024" date. The denomination is incused on the edge as "HUNDRED CENTS ONE DOLLAR OR UNIT."
Reverse: The reverse (tail) design stays true to the 1794 original, depicting a laurel wreath surrounding an eagle with spread wings in the center, an early predecessor of the American heraldic eagle. The inscription is "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA."
