1954 Cradle of the Union, HK-510, AU55
<B>1954 Cradle of the Union, HK-510, AU55 Uncertified.</B></I> Silver, 38.1 mm. Hibler and Kappen (1963) wrote of this issue: "To honor 200th anniversary of Albany Congress of 1754, historically the First American Congress, at which Benjamin Franklin presented first plan of Federal Union, authentic forerunner of Articles of Confederation of 1776 and of U.S. Constitution of 1787." This obviously historical so-called dollar is elusive in silver, with bronze being the most often seen composition. NGC has only certified seven pieces in all grades, thus confirming that this issue is indeed scarce. Attractive and defect-free, other than a touch of honest rub on the high points. The edge is plain. <BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
