    Description

    Offered here is a 1576 large silver coin from the United Netherlands or Lion Dollar (daalder). Known by the colonists as a so called dog dollar as the lion to them looked more like a dog than a lion. The lion dollar was one of the first silver dollar size coins used in colonial America. It was called a Daalder which is what became the U.S. dollar. So America's first silver dollar which was recognized world wide. If an early colonists had a large silver coin it could have been a lion or dog dollar. The one I offer was minted at Holland in the United Netherlands. The first dog dollars were minted in Holland in 1575 and this one is the second year for the series. Original with a striking crack. Looks great and is quite scarce as a first issue.
