gold dollar
Small yellow currency
A gold dollar was a United States coin minted from 1849 to 1889, the smallest denomination gold coin produced by the U.S.
Mint.
Worth one dollar in gold content, these tiny coins—barely larger than a thumbnail—proved impractical for everyday use and saw limited circulation.
They remain collectible today.
