Coinage of the gold dollar was begun in 1849; those coined 1849 to 1854 are known as the Liberty head or small sized type. In 1854 the piece was made larger in diameter and thinner and the design was changed to a feather headdress on a female, popularly known as the Indian head type or larger size gold dollar (1854 was coined in both types). In 1856 the type was changed slightly by enlarging the size of the head.
