The Flowing Hair Dollar is the inaugural silver dollar coin issued by the United States Mint in 1794 and 1795. Designed by Chief Engraver Robert Scot, it features a bust of Liberty with flowing hair on the obverse and an eagle perched on a rock surrounded by a wreath on the reverse.

Comprising 90% silver and 10% copper, the coin weighs approximately 26.96 grams. With low mintages—1,758 in 1794 and 160,295 in 1795—the Flowing Hair Dollar is a rare and historically significant coin, representing the early days of American coinage.
