<B>1959 Oregon Beaver Dollar, HK-573, MS67 NGC.</B></I> Gilt bronze, 39.7 mm. Part of the Oregon Statehood Centennial grouping, this issue was struck by the North Clackamas County Chamber of Commerce as a fundraiser. 20,000 pieces were struck and sold at the cost of 50 cents per token. The design incorporates a simplistic copy of the popular Oregon Exchange Company ten dollar territorial gold piece, which featured a well known symbol of the region; the beaver. The field of the outer ring is textured, giving a nicely contrasting visual effect. The current piece is of extraordinary quality, as one would expect per the assigned grade. Beautiful straw-gold coloration is coupled with virtually flawless fields to arrive at near-perfection. Census: 12 in 67, 2 finer (8/07).<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
