Design and Specifications of the 1795 Dollar
The 1795 Silver Dollar is a highly significant coin in American numismatic history. It represents one of the earliest silver dollar issues of the United States Mint, following the Coinage Act of 1792. This coin features the Flowing Hair design, which was only used for two years (1794-1795) before being replaced by the Draped Bust design in late 1795.
As one of the first silver dollars produced by the young United States, these coins played a crucial role in establishing the new nation’s currency and were instrumental in international trade.

Rarity Factors and Value Drivers
The condition of a 1795 Silver Dollar has a profound impact on its value. These coins saw heavy circulation and many surviving examples show significant wear. Coins in higher grades (VF and above) are particularly valuable.
Key factors affecting value include:
1. Strike quality: Well-struck coins with full details are more desirable.
2. Surface preservation: Coins free from significant marks or damage command premium prices.
3. Originality: Coins with original surfaces and natural toning are highly prized.
4. Centering: Well-centered strikes are more valuable than off-center examples.
Mintage: 160,295 (for both 1794 and 1795 combined)
Rarity Scale: Rare
Circulation Status: Limited Circulation
Preservation Rarity: Extremely rare in high grades (MS60 and above)
Varieties Errors: Two major varieties: Three Leaves and Two Leaves (under eagle's wings)
Market Demand: High, due to historical significance and rarity
Variety: The Two Leaves variety is rarer and generally more valuable than the Three Leaves variety.
Die state: Early die state examples with sharp details are more desirable.
Provenance: Coins with a documented history of ownership by notable collectors can command significant premiums.
Historical significance: As one of the earliest U.S. silver dollars, these coins hold immense historical value, which contributes to their overall worth in the numismatic market.
