The dollar coin became money in the United States with the Coinage Act of 1792, which established the U.S. dollar as the country's standard unit of currency. The first official dollar coins were minted in 1794, featuring designs that evolved over the years, including the famous Morgan and Eisenhower dollars. The U.S. dollar coin has since undergone various redesigns and has been issued in several forms, but its legal tender status has remained since its inception.
