The U.S. 1804 Draped Bust Silver Dollar is considered one of the rarest coins in the world – and comes with a price tag to match! (One specimen fetched over $4 MILLION at a 1999 auction – and only 15 are known to exist.)
Well, the average US citizen in 1804 was far more likely to carry another silver dollar in their pockets: the Spanish 1804 Silver Dollar. Not only were these coins accepted everywhere within the United States all the way up to the Civil War, they actually traveled the world – as evidenced by the small “chop marks” struck into them as a form of acceptance by Chinese merchants during the 1800’s. In Good condition or better, each one is a true historic treasure!
Since 1981, Collectible America has procured rare coins, secured bullion, and struck medallions for the American numismatic public as an independent private mint, not affiliated with the United States Government. This independence provides the cornerstone for our commitment to excellence in both product and service, and, most important, it guarantees to our customers essential rights and complete satisfaction.
