dar76124 Valued Member United States 395 Posts	Posted 06/21/2023 06:09 am I thought I had found an unlisted Columbian so-called dollar but after exchanging e-mails with Jeff Shevlin I realized since it's an advertising piece it's not eligable to be a so-called dollar. Still a cool piece and unlisted in any reference as far as I can tell. Report this Post to the Staff

HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 25131 Posts	Posted 07/01/2023 5:22 pm Souvenir token minted at the U.S. Pavilion of the Paris Exposition Internationale in 1900. This was quite an exposition - too much to describe here.

HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 25131 Posts	Posted 07/02/2023 12:52 pm commems, I believe it's brass. The obverse is "silvered", but the reverse is much darker than my poor picture suggests. https://en.numista.com/catalogue/ex...ia85278.html Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Report this Post to the Staff

commems CCF Master Historian of USA Commemoratives United States 12269 Posts	Posted 07/03/2023 12:14 pm @Hondo_Boguss: I did a little digging...the brass version of the medal on Numista appears to be just one of the metallic compositions used for the piece. Per PCGS, the medal was also struck in zinc, aluminum, copper-nickel and copper. Does yours feel light enough to be aluminum? Collecting history one coin or medal at a time! (c) commems.
