Just thought I'd share this article for those of you who haven't already seen it. It's an incredible piece of numismatic history and I'd love to see it in person some day.

The engraving suggests that there are nine others like it. Might they show up now that this one is getting attention?

What an incredible piece of history. Interesting to note that it sold for $1.10 back in 1910. Who knows what it would go for today...

So is it a one dollar coin, a medallion (ie presentation piece)...1910 auction sold for $1.10... would have a retailer exchange goods for this back in the day..just can't get over "a dollar and ten cents..
