The 230th Anniversary Flowing Hair Silver Medal pays homage to the Flowing Hair dollar coin, issued on October 15, 1794, by the U.S. Federal Government as America’s first dollar coin. Under the guidance of Mint Director David Rittenhouse, Mint Chief Engraver Robert Scot designed the first silver dollar coin with government oversight of the process.

The medal is a tribute to the first Flowing Hair dollar, with modern reproductions of the original obverse and reverse designs.
