For those of us who seldom look beyond the realm of Morgans (or fill in the blank), what is it we are looking at, besides the obvious One Pinch?

I don't have the book with the exact size, but it's about the size of the 3 cent coin.

Is it a pop 1 because THERE ARE NO OTHER SO-CALLED DOLLAR COINS LISTED ON THEIR WEBSITE?

Alright...somebody help me. Is this similar to California fractional currency but with Alaskan gold? Very cool looking, by the way.

Nice color. Whenever I see these things on eBay, I always assume they're counterfeit.

I bought it at a coin show in the mid 90s!
I'm watching this one very closely!!

Interesting that the eBay auction is able to pull a population report even though I don't see how to access one on the NGC site directly...

I spent three hours in freezing cold water in Alaska panning last summer and didn't find a single flake. This coin is awesome.
