Lucky Cuss Pillar of the Community United States 4883 Posts	Posted 08/30/2022 5:29 pm Apparently composed of copper, a bit over silver dollar sized with a reeded edge. Made by the Medallic Art Company. The California Bicentennial also was commemorated by Colt, who produced 5,000 special gold plated single action revolvers for the occasion.
