This coin is a unique example from the "So-Called Dollars" series cataloged in Hibler & Kappen, specifically minted in 1954. It represents a denomination of $1 (One Dollar) and is a Proof coin struck in gold, making it particularly noteworthy. With a diameter of 38.1 mm, this coin exhibits a substantial presence, even if the weight is not specified. The coin has no mint mark, indicating that it was produced without a specific mint location being identified. Its mintage is limited to just 50 pieces, which adds to its rarity and appeal among collectors. The absence of designer details, edge type, and weight does not detract from its significance within the numismatic community, as the unique characteristics of the gold material and the limited production run highlight its exclusivity. Meant for collectors rather than circulation, this Proof coin embodies a rich connection to American coinage history, offering both aesthetic and investment value. As a So-Called Dollar, it serves as a testament to various commemorative and commemorative-like issues created for collectors, further solidifying its place in numismatic literature. Given its properties and limited availability, this coin would be of exceptional interest to advanced collectors and historians alike who seek to explore the unique facets of American monetary tradition.
