Owner's Description

STATE FUND DOLLARS Several states issued medals in advance of exposition as one means of raising funds for exhibition purposes; usually sold for $1. Except for Arkansas' Aluminum piece, all were Bronze; some silver-plated officially, others privately. Arkansas medal presented to "home folks and notable visitors"; Maryland's distributed on Maryland Day to officials and others. THERE ARE ONLY A TOTAL OF (15) OF THE TENNESSEE STATE FUND DOLLARS LISTED IN THE NGC CENSUS, AND PCGS SHOWS NONE OF THIS TYPE LISTED IN THEIR CENSUS. ONE OF THE RARER STATE FUND DOLLAR TYPES FROM THE PANAMA-PACIFIC EXPO.
