NGC US Coin Census for Continental Dollars

Owner Comments:

Pattern silver dollars were coined in various metals from these dies attributed to Elisha Gallaudet, whose initials appear on this specimen followed by the Latin FECIT (made it). Unfortunately, the infant United States had far more ambition than silver, so these coins were never produced for circulation. This amazing specimen is a very rare gem, and NGC has graded only two finer. It carries the NGC Star Designation indicating outstanding eye appeal.
