Coin Challenge - Rosebud

More than one US Mint coin has a flower as part of its design. This coin challenge shows a rose just starting to open.

What is the coin? Is it silver, gold or another metal? Did the coin circulate or is it a commemorative coin? What is the denomination - a penny, nickel, dime, quarter, half dollar, dollar or another coin from early coinage? Is the design from the obverse or reverse of the coin? (Scroll down for hints.)

Coin Challenge Rosebud May 2011

 

Some hints:

  1. The US Mint produced the coin.
  2. The coin was minted at the West Point and Philadelphia mints.
  3. The coin is legal tender.

More hints provided on the atlcoin commentary on June 7.

  1. It’s a silver dollar.
  2. The rosebud is on the reverse of the coin.
  3. The obverse design caused controversy (and still does today).
