In honor of the Oscars, I have added a movie coin to my website

US Liberty Head 1898 ten-dollar gold coin stars in the 1963 film "Gidget Goes to Rome".

This film was made only a couple of years after the US Treasury Department
permitted real US coins and paper money to be shown in films

Early in the film, her mother gives Gidget the ten dollar gold piece "for good luck".

Why this film failed to win the Best Picture Academy Award I can never figure out.
