So called dollar

[NGE]

I found this in a "Michigan Basement" back about 1978. I have written to the Pierre S.D. Historical museum, and they would love to have it, if I ever decide to part with it. It has the first design of their State Seal on it. This was before Dakota became split...... will supply more info when I get back, gotta do grocery shopping with my wife ........ Not GE

BTW, it is the size of a silver dollar and it is made of pewter, with alot of lead, it is bendable. I have sent a question to Mark Parker a few years ago, and he nor anyone else has seen another like it, but they only valued it at 50 - 100.00 so, it still sits in my collection.
