1896 Bryan Dollar HK-1011, Uniface
Strike TypeCoin Details
Description
No lettering appears on HK-1011, a one-sided silver piece of 52 mm carrying only a cartwheel that springs from the bottom edge. It is the reverse design of Gorham's HK-780 of 1896 struck by itself, without the inscription that runs around the wheel's rim on that piece. On HK-780 the wheel stands for an ordinary silver dollar, set against a much larger disc of 823 grains that the text says matched one gold dollar. The 1900 cartwheel side, with added lettering above the wheel, was likewise struck alone, as HK-1013. Hibler and Kappen list HK-1011 without a Schornstein number. These pieces grew out of the silver controversy of the 1896 and 1900 campaigns, which bore on the national coinage itself.
