2024 W 1 oz High Relief Flowing Hair Gold PR70 DCAM PCGS First Day of Issue (FDI)
Struck at the West Point Mint in 2024, this 230th Anniversary Flowing Hair High Relief Gold coin is sealed in a PCGS holder and graded PR70 DCAM, a perfect Proof grade with deep cameo contrast. It carries the PCGS First Day of Issue designation, which identifies coins among those released by the U.S. Mint on the first day of sale.
The coin pays tribute to the Flowing Hair dollar first issued on October 15, 1794, America's first dollar coin. The obverse reproduces Robert Scot's portrait of Liberty facing right, surrounded by 15 stars for the 15 states that had ratified the Constitution by 1794. The reverse shows an eagle with spread wings within a laurel wreath. Struck in .9999 fine gold with a high relief proof finish, this coin contains one full troy ounce of gold.
