One Dollar

This American silver dollar was issued in 1986 to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Statue of Liberty. It is the first thing that people see when they sail into New York harbour. Of course what most people don’t realise is that it was a gift from the French people to commemorate the alliance of France and the United States during the American Revolution. Also, a lot of people don’t know it but it was designed by Eiffel of the Eiffel Tower fame in Paris. This beautiful Proof Silver Dollar shows the Statue of Liberty on one side and a torch of freedom on the other side. They are now 35 years old and in brilliant Proof condition. Every time I see the Statue of Liberty my heart flutters so a hundred years ago it must have really been something. A nice American commemorative silver dollar.

In 1988 the United States Mint issued a Special Silver Dollar for the Summer Olympics, held in Seoul, South Korea. In 1983 and 1984 the Mint issued Silver Dollars for the Los Angeles Olympics. This one is a little more difficult to find. You have the Olympic Torch lighting the torch from the Statue of Liberty. The other side has the Olympic rings, the value, and the United States of America. They are struck in 900 fine Silver and are in Proof condition. Now 30 years old and not all that easy to find and they do look quite handsome in Proof condition.

1922 Silver Peace Dollar Extremely Fine.

In 1976 the United States celebrated its 200th anniversary of freedom from this country. It is called their Bicentennial and they issued 3 special coins to honour this event. This is the largest coin of three, the Proof Silver Dollar. The obverse shows Ike Eisenhower with two different dates 1776 – 1976. The reverse shows the moon with the Liberty Bell. These silver dollars are brilliant proof and they were struck only in 1976. We think it is both a beautiful silver proof silver dollar and also very reasonably priced. But supplies are limited, and it has been some time since we were last able to offer them.

With the Olympics postponed until next year, the interest in older Olympic issues will increase. Yes, some countries will be issuing Olympic coins, but their prices will be very high. Mints worldwide are charging more and more for their coins and, of course, the price of silver has almost doubled. So we looked through our inventory to see what we could do. And we found this coin, one of the first three American Silver Dollars issued for the Olympics: the 1983 Dollar issued for the Olympics held in Los Angeles, in Proof condition, we think it's good value considering what some of the countries are going to charge.

In 1989 the American Congress celebrated its Bicentennial or 200th anniversary. The American Congress like our Parliament has two divisions, but unlike ours both of their houses are elected. The senior one is the Senate and the junior one is the House of Representatives. The US Mint issued a special silver dollar to honour the 200th anniversary of Congress. It has the Statue of Freedom in the clouds and sunburst on the obverse. The reverse has the Mace from the House of Representatives. These Special Silver Dollars are struck in Proof 900 fine Silver and are priced to tempt you, but supplies are limited. Supplied in protective capsule

In 2000 the United States Mint issued a new dollar coin: this one depicted a young native American Shoshone woman, Sacagawea carrying her infant Jean Baptiste. This design was only used from 2000-2008 and after that they changed the reverse design every year. All the Sacagawea Dollars are struck in Proof golden coloured metal. They were still trying to find a substitute for the dollar bill. I think these coins are fantastic in Proof condition, unfortunately in Uncirculated they are just coins. Supplies are limited. This product is the 2000 issue of this fabulous dollar coin in proof condition.

In 1971 the US Mint decided to mint new silver dollars. It is said that this was done to placate the casinos in Las Vegas. We don’t know about placating anyone... We love Las Vegas, the original Disney Land for adults. This was the first United States silver dollar struck since 1935, it was struck in 400 fine Silver Proof and it honoured Dwight David Eisenhower or ‘Ike’ as he was known. Ike was not only the Commander in Chief during World War II but he was also President of the United States for two terms. We have for sale a beautiful silver proof examples of this ‘new’ Silver Dollar dated 1971, that of course was 50 years ago. Still reasonably priced and it has a most interesting history.

Dates of the American Silver Eagles will be of our choice, but each will contain one ounce of pure silver, be in Brilliant Uncirculated condition and comes in a handsome Snap Lock Case.

In 1921 the American Government authorized a new Silver Dollar to honour the end of World War One. It became known as The Peace Dollar. They are full crown sized and struck in .900 fine Silver. The coins on offer are dated 1922-1927. Originally it was going to be a one-year issue, but it became so popular that they continued making them from time to time until about 1934. Our Peace Dollars are in Very Fine condition with the details very readable. These are nice coins that have had a bit of good honest wear from actually being used. We think you will like them.

A wonderful looking coin which was very popular in America.
