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.

SC$1 1894 CA HK-245 CALIFORNIA MIDWINTER EXPO

NGC F 15
|
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.

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.
