A 1794 Flowing Hair silver dollar, previously graded Gem Brilliant Uncirculated by Stack’s in 1995, has now been certified Mint State 67 by CAC Grading after being closely examined by experts.

1794年流動的頭髮銀元於1995年由Stack's逐漸成分的Gem Brillirrar，現在已通過專家對CAC分級進行了認證。

According to CAC Grading, it is the finest known surviving example from the first year the United States Mint struck dollar coins for circulation. Now insured for $15 million by its long-time owner, the coin may make its first public appearance in 30 years during 2025.

根據CAC評分，這是美國造幣廠第一年以來最著名的倖存例子，擊中了美元硬幣進行循環。現在，該硬幣以其長期所有者的身份以1500萬美元的價格投保，在2025年的30年內首次公開露面。

The coin was graded by Professional Coin Grading Service as MS66+ in 2010 and later given a CAC sticker of approval.

硬幣是通過專業硬幣分級服務分級為MS66+的，後來又獲得了CAC批准。

“I’ve been kicking myself ever since it received only a green CAC approval sticker rather than a gold sticker. I can certainly understand an eight-figure valuation in this market,” said CAC co-founder John Albanese.

“我一直在踢自己，因為它只收到了綠色的CAC認可貼紙，而不是金貼紙。我當然可以理解這個市場上的八位數估值。” CAC聯合創始人約翰·阿爾巴內斯（John Albanese）說。

With a pedigree dating back to the 1920s with famous collector Col. E.H.R. Green, and later, mid-century legendary type set collector Lelan Rogers, the 1794 dollar was purchased at the 1995 Stack’s auction by dealer Jay Parrino for $577,500. Parrino and partner Mike Phillips sold it in 1996 to dealer Chris Napolitano for his client, a collector in Georgia who still owns it and chooses to remain anonymous under the set registry name “Stellar.”

譜係可以追溯到1920年代，著名的收藏家Ehr Green上校，後來是中世紀的傳奇類型套裝收藏家Lelan Rogers，這筆1794美元是在經銷商Jay Parrino的1995年拍賣中以577,500美元的價格購買的。帕里諾（Parrino）和合夥人邁克·菲利普斯（Mike Phillips）在1996年將其賣給了經銷商克里斯·納波利塔諾（Chris Napolitano）的客戶，他的客戶是佐治亞州的一位收藏家，他仍然擁有它，並選擇以固定註冊表的名稱為“ Stellar”以匿名為匿名。

“The Lelan Rogers 1794 dollar is the absolute best 1794 dollar; the best 1794 dollar in existence,” stated Phillips.

“ Lelan Rogers 1794 Dollar是絕對最好的1794美元；菲利普斯說。

The coin was submitted to CAC Grading for crossover, a process during which a coin is removed from one third-party certification service’s sealed holder, examined, and, if appropriate, certified and encapsulated by another service.

硬幣已提交給CAC分級以進行跨界，該過程將硬幣從一個第三方認證服務服務的密封持有人中刪除，並進行了檢查，並在適當的情況下由另一個服務進行認證和封裝。

Napolitano said his customer “was certainly happy about the results” and had expected CAC Grading to grade the coin MS-67.

那不勒斯諾說，他的客戶“對結果肯定很滿意”，並預計CAC分級將對COIN MS-67進行評級。

“It validated what he felt about the dollar over all these years. Since I first saw this coin at Stack’s in 1995, I felt it was one of the most important U.S. coins in existence. In fact, at the time, I said that if I could own only one U.S. coin, this would be the one. That still holds true today,” Napolitano stated.

“這證實了他這些年來他對美元的感覺。自1995年在Stack's第一次看到這枚硬幣以來，我覺得這是美國最重要的硬幣之一。實際上，當時，我說，如果我只能擁有一枚美國硬幣，那將是那個硬幣。今天仍然如此。”那不勒斯諾說。

“My client has never publicly displayed the coin during the nearly 30 years he has owned it. We know there’s a whole generation of numismatists who have never had the opportunity to view the coin. In fact, many may not be aware of its existence at all. We don’t have any specific dates or venues to announce at this time, but we will discuss the possibility of displaying the coin in the future,” he revealed.

“在他擁有的近30年中，我的客戶從未公開展示硬幣。我們知道有一代人從來沒有機會觀看硬幣。實際上，許多人可能根本不知道其存在。我們目前沒有任何特定的日期或場所可以宣布，但是我們將討論將來展示硬幣的可能性。”他透露。

The 1995 Stack’s auction description of the coin stated:

1995年堆棧的拍賣描述說：

“1794 Bolender 1. Gem Brilliant Uncirculated. 416.1 grains. A gorgeous toned satin gem coin. Both sides are toned a lovely, deep coin silver gray with iridescent champagne and palest iridescent blue around the rims. The fields are fully lustrous and satiny, the frost virtually unmarred by signs of handling. One has to wonder how such a big and heavy coin could have survived for 200 years with such satiny surfaces intact.”

“ 1794 bolender 1。寶石亮未流通。 416.1穀物。華麗的色調緞子寶石硬幣。雙方都有色調可愛的深幣銀灰色，虹彩香檳和邊緣周圍最淡淡的虹彩藍色。這些田地是完全有光澤和緞面的，幾乎沒有處理跡象的霜凍。人們不得不懷疑，如此大而沉重的硬幣如何使如此緞面的表面完好無損地生存了200年。”

According to U.S. Mint records, Chief Coiner Henry Voigt delivered a total of 1,758 silver dollars to Mint Director David Rittenhouse on Oct. 15, 1794. That was the total mintage of 1794-dated Flowing Hair dollars released for the year.

據美國造幣廠記錄稱，首席庫納·亨利·沃格特（Coiner Henry Voigt）於1794年10月15日向薄荷總監David Rittenhouse交付了1,758美元的銀元。

“Less than 150 1794 silver dollars are known to exist today, and only a handful are certified mint state,” said CAC Grading President Ron Drzewucki.

CAC評分總裁羅恩·德爾澤維奇（Ron Drzewucki）說：“眾所周知，少於150 1794的銀幣已經存在，只有少數是經過認證的薄荷州。”

Several leading early American federal coinage experts who spoke with CAC Grading about the coin unanimously agreed, including Joe O’Connor.

包括喬·奧康納（Joe O'Connor）在內的幾位與CAC分級交談的美國早期聯邦造幣專家，他們一致同意了硬幣。

“When we all first saw the Lelan Rogers 1794 dollar almost 30 years ago, it was clear then that this was not only one of the finest examples of the Flowing Hair Dollar type, but also likely the finest 1794. Three decades later, our collective opinion has not changed,” O’Connor declared.

“當我們所有人都在大約30年前首次看到萊蘭·羅傑斯（Lelan Rogers）1794美元時，很明顯，這不僅是流動的頭髮類型的最好的例子之一，而且可能是1794年最好的1794年。三十年後，我們的集體是意見沒有改變。”奧康納宣稱。
