Wisconsin so-called dollar

Blackhawk

Recently got this 1936 Wisconsin centennial so-called dollar (HK-696). I believe that the issue had a fairly low mintage, and have never seen another in the packaging.

Very nice. The holder seems to have water damage (?) but the medal itself looks fine. This is actually one of the easier so-called dollars to find in its original packaging, although that certainly doesn't mean that it's common. With the packaging, they've been selling on eBay in the $50 range.

I've been looking on Ebay, but haven't spotted one. What are they listed under?

jonathanb

Usually listed under Coins > Exonumia > Medals. I seem to remember one in the last month or two, but probably not in the last week or two.

Thanks!

I bought this one a couple of months ago - first one I had seen in an original holder in quite some time.

FWIW, Cameonut's link is probably the one I was thinking about.

Cool. I wonder where I could buy one now?

Blackhawk

You could have bought this one...I had it on the BST board.

I'm the new proud owner of this one. I was born near Green Bay so I thought this would be a pretty cool addition to my collection.
