USA 99.9% Silver 1 Oz. Proof Coin Inspired By Benjamin Franklin’s 1776 Continental Dollar – In the fiery summer of 1776, as thirteen American colonies cast off British rule, the fledgling nation faced not just a political struggle but a financial one too. Leaders turned to the idea of a unified national coinage, and a pattern coin known today as the 1776 Continental Dollar was struck that year, with a design widely attributed to the inventive mind of Benjamin Franklin and engraved by Elisha Gallaudet. Now, that first-ever dollar design inspires a gleaming first-ever tribute to America’s Semiquincentennial – The USA 250th Anniversary 1776 Continental Dollar Proof Coin, available exclusively from The Bradford Exchange Mint.A privately minted special release intended as a collector’s item, this distinctive Proof coin contains 1 oz. of 99.9% silver.

The back features a circle of thirteen connected links surrounding the declaration “We Are One”, symbolizing the unity of the original colonies. Proof-quality coining dies create this impressive coin’s frosted details and mirror bright fields.
