The Pan Pac Expo opened on this day in 1915. I don’t have any coins from there but would love to see yours. All I have is this postcard.

I don't have a piece to share, but I love the history of the pieces and the postcard.

One area I never collected but there is some cool stuff out there.
I sold this one a few years back but liked its look as an AU58
To travel on in old accustomed ways
I still remember the talks by the water
The proud sons and daughter
That knew the knowledge of the land
Spoke to me in sweet accustomed ways
Where are all of the 50s???? Haha!

I don't have any of the real coins, but I do have these 2oz silver tributes, which are a nice fill-in (and way more affordable)
I have an exonumia piece.
I don't know how to edit.
Here is the reverse.

I LOVE those coins, but only have the gold dollar. I do have some of the stamps.
