U.S. MINT RESTRIKE FROM THE 1800s –The original Gobrecht Silver Dollars were legal tender coins struck in 1836. Just 1,600 were struck and they were issued to gauge the public’s opinion of the new dollar coin. By the mid-1800s, a growing collector market prompted officials at the U.S. Mint to re-strike a number of these coins as medals, which were then sold to an eager public from 1850 to the 1870s.
COIN DESIGN CLASSIC –The Gobrecht Silver Dollar gets its name from its designer, Christian Gobrecht, the third Chief Engraver at the U.S. Mint. The “Seated Liberty” design for this coin was altered slightly and used on the half dime, dime, quarter, half dollar and silver dollar, giving Gobrecht ever-lasting fame for his timeless classic.
STRUCK IN FINE SILVER –This 1836 Gobrecht Seated Liberty Silver Dollar Restrike was minted in 26.36 grams.
