So-Called Dollars refer to a category of commemorative tokens and medals issued primarily in the United States, often associated with events or individuals and usually not considered official currency. The term arises from the fact that while they resemble dollars in design and size, they lack legal tender status. Hibler and Kappen is a well-known reference work that catalogs many of these pieces, including those from the year 1878. Often, their rarity, historical significance, and unique designs make So-Called Dollars popular among collectors.
