This is by far my oldest error coin as it comes from the second decade of the 1800's.

This was a Heritage Auction old lot #37321 from July 28th, 2019

Hammer price with premium was $348 which also made this my most expensive error coin.

Item Description: SC$1 1894 CA HK-245 CALIFORNIA MIDWINTER EXPO
Grade: NGC F 15
Research: View Coin
Owner Comments
Old eBay auction won on the cheap many years ago.

This was from the California MidWinter Exposition in 1894

Condition is a F 15 so I wonder just how many people handled this coin during that time.
Has Great Britain vibes with the warrior on the front but I was drawn to the bear when this first came up for auction.
Slot: Previous addition before this one was 8/30/19. Been slacking a bit from this set but the piece has to call to me. Never seen a coronation coin that wasn't silver and the price was under $20. Definitely going to need to research this more.

Grade: NGC REPLACEMENT TOKEN

Owner Comments
I have always been a fan of history, so when there is a chance to track the history of a coin or medal, it instantly increases the interest for me.

This is part of the Fitzgerald's Nevada Club Reno Hoard I have seen silver dollars as part of this but I haven't added a token with a pedigree prior to this purchase many years ago.
