1879 - Coins

So-Called Dollars are a type of medal or commemorative coin that were produced primarily for collectors and as souvenirs, rather than for general circulation. The term originates from the collection titled "So-Called Dollars" by the numismatist Harold S. Adams, who cataloged various tokens and medals that resembled the dollar coinage in size or purpose. One notable example is the 1879 So-Called Dollar, which commemorates the United States Centennial Exposition held in Philadelphia. These collectibles can vary widely in design, material, and rarity, with many pieces celebrating historical events, notable figures, or specific milestones in American history, including significant anniversaries such as the centennial.
