Issued by the U.S. Mint in 2004 for $30.00
Nope...don't have one....I wasn't on the Mint's website then and hadn't begun collecting "new" Commemoratives at that point........now I do....and wish I had that one ! You can't get much more important "historically speaking" than that !!...

They should have issued one for poor ol' Nikola Tesla(he became a US citizen in 1891) since Edison stole half his ideas

And Tesla was the victor in the "War of Currents" over AC versus DC. Hmmm, an "Electrifying America" series with a "War of Currents" commemorative dollar, now that is an idea!

I got the coin but not that cool box! Man, I want one like that. But I like these modern commemoratives. This one is a nice coin, in and of itself. And how about the two Ben Franklins!
