Wild Bill Hickok's last dollar ?

My grandfather lived in South Dakota and, before he died, gave me this silver dollar.
Wild Bill was playing poker in Deadwood ,S.D. when he was shot from behind by
Jack McGraw.
It's possible that my Morgan could have been the last bet Wild Bill ever made.

I've always thought one of the best parts about coins are their history.

I'm sure any blood stains have long since disappeared from my coin but it's
still fun to imagine what happened in that saloon.

It is possible, isn't it ?
