So-Called Dollars refer to a category of numismatic items that resemble dollar coins but were not intended to circulate as legal tender. They typically commemorate a specific event, person, or organization. The term is often associated with pieces cataloged in the Hibler & Kappen reference work, notably including items from various commemorative events in the United States. The 1893 variants often relate to the World’s Columbian Exposition, showcasing artistic designs and reflecting historical significance. Collectors value these items for their rarity, condition, and historical context.
