Best Answer

The Liberty Seated Dollar design replaced it. Historical Note = although all Gobrecht Dollars bear the dates 1836 - 1839, a number of them were in fact minted in the 1850s to the 1870s to satisfy collectors. These, however, still show the original dates of 1836-1839.

What is the value of an 1828 US silver dollar?

The U.S. did not mint any $1 coins for circulation from 1804 to 1835 inclusive. Please check again and post a new question. If the coin does say that it is a $1 piece with that date it is not genuine. I am not aware of a Silver Dollar that was minted in the year of 1828. The Heraldic Eagles were minted in the years 1798 through 1804; the Gobrecht Dollars were minted from 1836 through 1839; and the Liberty Seated Dollars were minted from 1840 thrugh 1873.
