About the 2024-(P) Silver 230th Anniversary Flowing Hair Medal

This modern commemorative medal was struck in beautiful .900 fine silver, featuring a flawless finish that earned it the highest grade possible: MS70. That means it’s as perfect as a coin can get, with no imperfections to spoil that shiny charm. It carries the pride of 230 years of American coinage history, presented in a contemporary package.

The Morgan Silver Dollar Connection

While this medal celebrates the classic Flowing Hair design, it’s worth rememberin’ the Morgan Silver Dollar, which shares a deep connection to American numismatic tradition. Here’s what makes the Morgan Dollar so iconic:

• Designer: George T. Morgan, whose artwork brought Liberty’s profile to life.
• Minting Years: 1878 to 1904, and a one-year comeback in 1921.
• Mints: Produced in Carson City (CC), San Francisco (S), Denver (D), and Philadelphia (no mint mark).
• Obverse: Liberty wearing a Phrygian cap with “Liberty” inscribed on the hair band, surrounded by thirteen stars representing the original colonies, along with “E Pluribus Unum” and the year of issue.
• Reverse: A bald eagle clutching an olive branch and arrows, framed by “United States of America,” “One Dollar,” and “In God We Trust.”
