I’ve had this HK-363A, 1909 Alaska-Yukon Pacific Expo, for many years. Have any of you SC$1 aficionados (@keets, @ZoidMeister, @Zoins) ever seen one like this — with the original attachment at top? Is it rare as such?
Apologize for the poor photo...taken with my phone through a plastic holder.
I'm addicted to exonumia ... it is numismatic crack!

I've only seen the following eBay. It's a wonderful, rare piece. It would be great to imagine people walking around wearing these at the expo!
I have a few AYPE SCDs but they are more pedestrian compared to that! Here's one:
Wow, a lot of nice new ones posted tonight! I was going through mine today and thought to try and image this one.
.
1904 Louisiana Purchase Expo, HK-299 Silver. It doesn't show on the image but when rotated it has a nice pl look.
Are any designated pl?

Here are two of mine from George Bache Soley of Philadelphia. I'm glad to have picked these up in the William Sphon Baker sale as I haven't seen any come available since. Amazing to think these were held by the Historical Society of Pennsylvania for over 100 years.
1876 American Star - Bronze - HK-70a - Ex. William Sphon Baker
1876 American Star - White Metal - HK-70 - Ex. William Sphon Baker
I really have an affection for the HK-346/347 1907 Jamestown "Pocahontas" Tercentennial Exposition strikes. I recently acquired an "upgrade" to my set. The previous HK-347 only had about 3% of the original gilt remaining.
My second favorite of my collection, relevant to my Celtic heritage; Another highly prized SCD of my collection for philosophical reasons: Never forget our national heritage: And the epicenter of my SCD collection:
The HK-1 was gifted to me by the widow of Frank VanZandt. Anyone who has been around this hobby a while knew how important Frank was to the hobby. He was a great mentor to me.
You know, sometimes I get the feeling that I'm playing in the wrong sandbox . . . . . . . .

I have this as HK293a but I don’t have the book, just some internet surfing. I think it’s a good one.
Those are gorgeous
the top one has the look of a rinse in MS70.
That it appears to be. In lieu of the book, here is a link to a site where you can do some additional research.
