Description
- The original Silver Dollar of America.
- Thomas Jefferson suggested it be used as the basis for the American currency system in 1776
- It is the first coin listed in the illustrious Red Book, the most important reference book in US numismatics
- Even the Red Book only lists the Pillar Dollar up to Extremely Fine condition, far below this Uncirculated example
- If it weren’t for a once-in-a-lifetime hoard, finding these national treasures would be nearly impossible
