Description: Partway through 1795, the second year of silver-dollar production, the mint began using a new obverse design for the coin. The “Draped Bust” design replaced the previous “Flowing Hair” silver dollars, though it did retain the inclusion of 15 stars; one for each state in the union at the time. A few years later, in 1798, the reverse would be significantly changed as well.

Description: When copper for coining was scarce, the mint would use any source of metal available, including other coins. This 1795 cent was minted on top of a Talbot, Allum, & Lee copper – a token produced by a New York based mercantile company of the same name. The original inscription “Liberty & Commerce” can still be read on the obverse, while the rigging and sails of a ship can be seen on the reverse.
