    I just bought this at the San Jose show - it's not expensive or necessarily rare, but along with the Indian portrait, I thought it was quite attractive and eye appealing. What are your thoughts? Feel free to post any Pac Pacific medals and tokens you may have!

    Wow that is sure a beautiful coin with a nice design. The only problem with you sharing it is that now I have to have one.

    Very nice, I go out of my way to pick up tokens with old Indian heads. There's actually quite a few souvenir/tokens that were made for the 1915 Panama Pacific event and yours is in the top 3, but that's simply MHO.

    I may be wrong but I think I've only come across two different types of Indian head Pan Pacific tokens. Anyone know?

    nice piece, this is one of my favorite Pan-Pac so-called $'s:


    But it is from Buffalo, another Pan-Pac expo:

    I believe that I have at least one more, but I don't have pictures right now.

    I do have from other expos, tho.

    By the way:
    What size is yours.
    It is not listed in Hibbler & Kappens.

    So, I presume, since 'souvenir penny' that it is cent size?
    Then it would not be listed.

    Nice piece.

    It's not the size of a penny, it's close to the size of a dollar coin. I didn't know there was a book or guide to these tokens.
