Silver Dollar Coin

The silver dollar coin has been produced in the United States almost since the beginning of this nation. Production began on the first silver dollar coin, the “Flowing Hair” dollar in 1794 and since then has seen quite a few makeovers. Next in line of the silver dollar coin series in the U.S. is the “Draped Bust” dollar. With two types of reverses, the Draped Bust silver dollar coin, as well as the Flowing Hair silver dollar coin, are two of the most sought after United States coins in all of numismatics.

The 1804 Draped Bust silver dollar coin is one of the rarest and most valuable coins in the world today. The United States then discontinued production of the silver dollar coin until the Gobrecht silver dollar coin brought the series back into production in the 1830’s. Although this variety of the silver dollar coin was in production for just a few years, it rekindled merchants interest in the ease and efficiency of using the silver dollar coin for transactions of the day. The “Seated Liberty” silver dollar coin followed the Gobrecht silver dollar coin and became a staple to business and investment practices for several decades in the 19th century. After congress neglected to pass legislation required to keep up production of the Seated Liberty silver dollar coin, the “Trade Dollar” silver dollar came into production and was mainly used overseas to facilitate trade and assert U.S. influence in Asia and other Pacific and Indian ocean areas as many nations in this region of the world were emerging as powerful trade partners to the United States.

A few short years after the Seated Liberty silver dollar coin was discontinued, congress passed legislation enabling mints to begin production on the “Morgan” silver dollar coin, thus providing a stable source of coinage to help in the expansion of the western United States. The Morgan silver dollar coin, after being produced for a time period spanning close to 50 years, gave way to the final business strike type of silver dollar coin the the United States would release to the public. The “Peace” silver dollar coin lasted for just 14 years in production, but made quite an impact on the coin collecting world for decades to come. The silver dollar coin of the United States has now become a staple in every coin collection and is still sought after by professional numismatists and novice coin collectors the world over.

I recently got divorced so I wanted to get rid of some of the jewelry my ex-husband got me. I found Nevada Coin and jewelry searching the web. When I called the guy that answered the phone was friendly and willing to quote me a price per gram. I went to their store on Flamingo, Avery whom I spoke to on the phone tested my items using some kind of x-ray machine. I could see that some of my jewelry was not the karat I thought (some lower some higher). He paid what he quoted on the phone no bait and switch. It took less than 15 minutes got my cash and got rid of some bad memories. I would recommend this company if you are looking to sell jewelry.

Grateful for the Nevada Coin and Jewelry shop, I just adore it. I took some collectable figurines in and they bought them. I came out smelling like a rose. You should’ve been there to see the big smile on my face. I ran all the way home to look for some more. Can’t wait to get back! I can sure use the money!

Brenda

What friendly staff. They help you sell your items even if they don’t have a use for it by calling other shops around the area to see if they could use it… They want you to have the best out come from selling your items. I was so happy I decided to go to them!

Really cool cats over at Nevada Coin and Jewelry. You would’ve thought that I was “Madonna” the way those guys treated me. I was so mesmerized by all of the antiques, they have in there, I believe I was there for two hours, just looking, unbelieveable! When I went in I was so hot, they offered me a cold bottle of water, how cool is that? It felt like home to me. I wanted to get a price for some old jewelry that was passed down by grandma, I was well satisfied. When I left the shop, I was singing “Money, Money, Money.

I brought them some gold pendants, rings and a few other pieces. I knew they weren’t worth that much but I needed the cash. The guys (and there are a lot of them) were really nice and not the least bit condescending. They know when you come in to sell there is a reason but they don’t make you feel bad or inadequate. The store is filled with interesting objects for sale and for show. A very nice and very fair place to buy and sell. I highly recommend them.

We were really pleased with the help that AJ gave us concering our gold coins and watches. I don’t think we could have received a better deal anywhere. All of the personnel at Nevada Coin & Jewelry were very professional. We will recommend them to our friends.

This dealer was beyond excellent in all respects! No low-ball games, no fooling around. These people are honest, and the transaction was handled smoothly with complete transparency. I will definitely recommend Nevada Coin & Jewelry to everybody I know!

Been living in Vegas for many years and never had to sell or hock any of my items unfortunately as luck would have it that day did eventually find me and let me tell you is it a tough racket to find a decent place out here to do business with. Pawn shops are a joke and could care less about their customers and treated me like another number. Tried and tried and place after place the numbers where all over the place. Finally decided to go to these guys and I’m glad I did. They tested each piece of my jewelry right in from of me with some kind of xray machine. They explained how they calculated the price and paid me cash on the spot. Avery was very helpful and didn’t mind answering my questions and explaining what they do. I left feeling I got the best price for my items. I would recommend them to anyone looking to sell their jewelry.
