Bust Dollars are treasured artifacts from the times of our founding fathers – and in great demand. Each is struck in 89% fine silver and has the largest diameter of any U.S. coin struck for circulation. One Bust dollar was equivalent to several days' pay in colonial times, so their mintages were small. And today, with the passage of over 215 years, many have been lost or melted, leaving few survivors. All bear the famous Draped Bust portrait of Liberty and the Heraldic Eagle reverse, which began in 1798. Each one has been hand selected by our experts and certified by PCGS.
