1933 Colorado Dollar, HK-869, AU55 Uncertified
<B>1933 Colorado Dollar, HK-869, AU55 Uncertified.</B></I> Silver, 39.7 mm. Hibler-Kappen (1963) report that 2,000 pieces were struck of this Type Three version, but an unknown amount of that output was melted to be struck into the more sophisticated Type Four variety. This issue is not as scarce as the Type Two release, but is much scarcer than the Type Four variant. The Colorado Century of Progress Commission had less than a month to design, strike, and distribute the Colorado dollars in order to raise funds for participation in the 1933 World's Fair, hence the simplistic design of the first three versions. Each dollar issued contained exactly one troy ounce of silver.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
