Americas First Silver Dollar is not a replica! When the U.S. Mint struck its first Silver Dollar in 1794, the coins size and silver purity were based on Mexicos 8 Reales silver coin. In fact, the 8 Reales was so popular it remained legal tender in the U.S. until 1857. This handsome .903 silver coin minted when Mexico was still a Spanish colony features the portrait of the Spanish king on the obverse and a shield between two ribbon-draped pillars on the reverse. Mounted on a sturdy display card in a protective vinyl folder with a short history and certificate of authenticity. More details about product Americas First Silver Dollar
