1804 Dollar Tribute – 1 AVDP Oz .999 Fine Copper Round | Modern U.S. Coin Tributes
Description:
Few coins in American history inspire the reverence, mystery, and admiration of the legendary 1804 Dollar. Often referred to as the “King of American Coins,” the original issue stands as a symbol of early American artistry, diplomacy, and enduring national identity. This exquisite tribute captures that legacy in striking detail, honoring one of the most iconic designs ever produced by the United States Mint.
The obverse features a beautifully rendered classical portrait of Liberty, her flowing hair and graceful profile meticulously sculpted to echo the elegance of the original design. Every strand, contour, and subtle transition is brought to life through deep intaglio engraving, creating a luminous interplay of light and shadow that gives the piece remarkable depth and presence.
On the reverse, the heraldic eagle stands proudly with wings outstretched, shielded breast forward and banner unfurled. Surrounding devices—including stars, arrows, and olive branch—are crisply defined and perfectly balanced, reinforcing the timeless symbolism of strength, unity, and sovereignty. The refined execution and mirror-smooth fields elevate the design, resulting in a round that is nothing short of breathtaking.
Struck in one avoirdupois ounce of .999 fine copper, this tribute is a celebration of both historic American coinage and modern minting excellence. The warm copper surface enhances every engraved detail, lending the round a rich, almost sculptural quality that must be seen in hand to be fully appreciated.
An exceptional addition to the Modern U.S. Coin Tributes collection, this 1804 Dollar Tribute is not merely a homage—it is a work of numismatic art, crafted for collectors who value beauty, history, and uncompromising quality.
