FUN FACTS:
THE FLOWING HAIR DOLLAR WAS THE FIRST DOLLAR COIN ISSUED BY THE UNITED STATES FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.  THE COIN WAS MINTED IN 1794 AND 1795: ITS SIZE AND WEIGHT WERE BASED ON THE SPANISH DOLLAR, WHICH WAS POPULAR IN TRADE THROUGHOUT THE AMERICAS.
BOTH YEARS OF THE FLOWING HAIR SILVER DOLLAR WERE STRUCK ON PLANCHETS (SILVER BLANKS) WITH THE COMPOSITION SPECIFIED IN THE COINAGE ACT OF 1792.  THIS CONSISTED OF A FINENESS OF .8924 AND A WEIGHT OF 416 GRAINS OF SILVER.  BECAUSE OF THE PRIMITIVE METHODS OF PRODUCING THE PLANCHETS, THE DIAMETER DIFFERS FROM COIN TO COIN, USUALLY DETERMINED TO BE BETWEEN 39 AND 40 MILLIMETERS.
THE DESIGN FOR THE COINS BY ROBERT SCOT WAS BROADLY DESCRIBED UNDER THE COINAGE ACT OF 1792. THE OBVERSE (FRONT) OF THE COIN WAS TO CONTAIN AN IMAGE EMBLEMATIC OF LIBERTY WITH THE INSCRIPTION "LIBERTY" AND THE YEAR OF THE COINAGE. THE REVERSE (BACK) OF THE COIN WAS TO FEATURE THE REPRESENTATION OF AN EAGLE WITH THE INSCRIPTION “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA."
AS WITH OTHER EARLY SILVER AND GOLD COINS, THE DENOMINATION OF THE COIN DOES NOT APPEAR ON THE OBVERSE OR REVERSE.
INSTEAD, THE DENOMINATION IS FOUND ON THE OUTER EDGE OF THE COIN.
ON THE FLOWING HAIR DOLLAR IT SAYS "HUNDRED CENTS ONE DOLLAR OR UNIT."
