The U.S. Mint struck only a handful of 1804 Silver Dollars, and one sold at auction for $4.1 million. Why did they strike so few? Because these 1804 Spanish 8 Reales Silver Dollars were circulating in the U.S. at the time—and they were the preferred form of money in the pockets of Americans. In fact, they were legal tender up to 1857. We were recently given first right of refusal on a hoard of 1804 Silver Dollars in Very Fine condition and we snapped them up. Now you can add this most historic Silver Dollar to your collection! Comes in protective capsule with certificate of authenticity.
