So-Called Dollars are a type of numismatic item that originated in the United States during the early 20th century, particularly around 1934 when the term became popular. These tokens or medals were often produced for commemorative purposes, large events, or as souvenirs, and they resemble dollar coins in size and design but are not official currency. The name derives from their association with the dollar denomination, despite not being issued by the U.S. Mint. Collectors seek So-Called Dollars due to their historical significance, variety, and unique artistic designs.
