Description
The 230th Anniversary Flowing Hair Silver Medal pays homage to the Flowing Hair dollar coin, is-sued 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 medal is a tribute to the first Flowing Hair dollar, with modern reproductions of the original obverse and reverse designs.

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 reverse (tails) 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.”
To complement this historic design, the medal is encapsulated and placed in a stylish clamshell. A classic black presentation case embellished with the United States Mint seal and an outer sleeve with a gold embossed image of the Flowing Hair dollar to complete the packaging. The medal includes a unique certificate of authenticity with matching imagery.

In addition, 1,794 of the medals will contain a “230” privy mark, and 230 of those privy- marked medals will include a certificate of authenticity signed by United States Mint Director Ventris C. Gibson.
