| This so-called dollar was issued in or about 1929 for the Bicentennial of General Robert E. Lee’s Birthplace in Stratford, Virginia. The medal is listed as HK-774 in the Hibler-Kappen book on So-Called Dollars and has been graded MS64RB by NGC and is encapsulated in one of the newer-style edge-view holders. The medals were manufactured from bronze and were treated to give them an oxidized or antiqued finish. Because of that treatment, these medals sometimes have the look of an improperly cleaned specimen, but that is how they were issued. A few light marks are found on each side of the piece, seemingly keeping it from a gem grade. An overall nice example of this so-called dollar. |
