The first circulating US silver dollars were minted in 1794.

There are pattern and trial pieces that pre-date the first circulating dollars, and there are many replicas and fantasy pieces as well. Any suspected "dollar" from 1792 should be checked for the word COPY or REPLICA worked into the design somewhere. If that's not present, it should be examined in person by one of the major grading and certification agencies such as ANA or PCGS.

Absolutely 100% factual real 1792 U.S. silver dollar. The very first

statute of the Mint Act of April 2, 1792, authorized striking of silver dollar denomination coins. Our federal coinage actually begins in 1792 with what could be argued to be patterns, regular production of some denominations commencing during 1793.

The silver dollar denomination was delayed until 1794, in part due to a problem in requisitioning the necessary silver.

If properly authenticated, over a million USD.
