First and finest!
Part II of this remarkable collection will highlight the most splendidly preserved example known of the first silver dollar struck for circulation in 1794, as well as a the finest extant example of the first eagle (ten dollar gold piece) struck in 1795. The 1794 silver dollar has an unrivaled provenance reaching back to 1794-95, and the 1795 eagle may well be the most perfectly preserved 18th century United States gold coin in existence.
