Message:: [QUOTE="Blacklotus, post: 695075, member: 20683"]Hi,  I am new to numismatics and I recently came upon an old 1795 Flowing Hair (non draped) Silver Dollar. All the different types of this silver dollars I've seen images, of on numerous sites, show it having a slight tint of copper in its color. However, mine does not. It appears completely silver. It also does not have any slight weakness on its edges as many sites have suggested a 1795 silver dollar of this age should. It is in very fine condition and does not appear to have been circulated much. It has some very minor scratches. Being unbiased towards my new coin, I also researched replicas of 1795 silver dollars. I found that in all instances replicas of this coin also do not match the color of my coin. There is no letter indicating a mint location on the coin as well. This leads me to believe there were some minted and other coins unminted during this year. I will post pictures of both sides when I get a chance. Any thoughts and opinions from mighty coin connoisseurs would be greatly appreciated :] -Lotus[/QUOTE]
