So-Called Dollars are a type of commemorative medal issued primarily in the United States that typically feature designs relevant to specific events, organizations, or historical figures. The term originates from the 19th century and refers to pieces that resemble or are used in place of actual currency, yet are not official U.S. coins. The 1913 So-Called Dollar, specifically, is notable for its association with the Panama-Pacific International Exposition, celebrating achievements in both art and engineering. These pieces are often collected for their artistic value and historical significance rather than their monetary worth.
