Produced primarily in the United States, these items are named after the 1935 book "So-Called Dollars" by David Tripp. The 1948 So-Called Dollars commemorate the 1948 Democratic National Convention held in Philadelphia and are a part of a broader category of souvenirs that collectors often seek. These pieces can vary in material and design, reflecting the historical significance or themes of the events they commemorate.
