Okay, I like them all. I'll take one of each and I will pay shipping. Fantastic show-n-tell. Thanks OP and all the others!

 

My Grandfather picked these up in 1915 (Panama Pacific) and 1925 (Stone Mountain) on business trips to San Francisco & Atlanta respectively. They have never been cleaned, nor do I intend to do so.

 

These created some debate at the time:commemorating the creation of three coins, in gold yet.

 

I like low grade examples too

 

The first one sure does look like a pocket piece.

 

When I started collecting in earnest again about 20 years ago, I perused the early commemoratives in the Red Book and made a list of me favorites. Ten of them made my list and I’ve acquired eight of them so far. Great thread and some great examples shown so far!

 

Good possibility. I carried a 1982 Washington half for a few years and based on its wear, that Sesqui was banging around for 15-20 years

 

400th Anniversary Mayflower silver reverse proof Medal.

 

Wonder if the mint or anyone else will make some kind of commemorative to celebrate the 400th Thanksgiving this November.

 

These ought to give you a target to shoot for . . . . .

How the bloody devil did I miss this thread? Good thing I had an extra scotch or I'd never have discovered it.
