The artistic fusion of national pride and technological achievement in its design makes this dollar an emblematic reminder of American ingenuity. Each coin is crafted from 40% silver, setting it apart from later versions which were struck in copper-nickel cladding. Its tactile weight and solid craftsmanship testify to the quality and dedication of the U.S. Mint.
