Can you imagine the popularity of these if they just said "50 cents"??

Although not truely coins, they are generally accepted as commemoratives by collectors.
I'd really like to have a pair of these in my collection.

It's quite nice to see them with attractive patina, they don't normally come like that. For a very long time these have been considered an optional but important part of the early commem set.

Neat! I had no idea these even existed... They don't really fit into the scheme of things I collect but then
again I like the looks of 'em so I guess that makes them eligible for my "collection"
Where do I find 'em and what would one set me back? What are they made of?

There's a dealer in my area that has quite a stash of these, including four of the gold ones.
