Sold Out - $289.00
NGC has graded just 79 of this neat, if not completely understood, So-Called-Dollar modeled after the reverse of the Morgan dollar.
Essentially, one camp believes these were unfinished store cards. This would, effectively, make them one of the last store cards of the era. The other camp believes these were likely political pieces in the vein of the Bryan and, later, Lesher dollars.
Regardless of which camp you prefer no one, to date, has come up with definitive evidence as to their nature. Fortunately both are compelling theories and its appeal is undeniable. Easily recognized as being modeled after a Morgan dollar, its rudimentary "LEGAL TENDER" stamp, and its border lettering advertising C.M. Whipple... a.. whip manufacturer make clear the piece is both a private issue and the maker is a hair disaffected.
