In 1834 and later years, when the US government wanted to issue some coin sets as gifts, it struck a handful of 1804- dated coins of this type, resulting in what today are $1,000,000+ rarities. The Mint reported that it struck 19,570 Silver Dollars in 1804, but these were almost certain- ly struck with dies bearing the 1803 date, a common practice of the era. When dies were made to strike 1800-dated Silver Dollars, one of the reverses had a twig hanging off of the olive branch on the lower left of the reverse.
