NGC Expert Comments:
M.E. Hart’s Coins of the Golden West, modeled after private gold issues of the 19th century, are charming souvenirs of the Old West and pioneer days. As intriguing as the tokens themselves is the story of M.E. Hart, rumored to be a disguise for Farran Zerbe who did not want to be seen hocking souvenirs. Indulge in nostalgia and enjoy these kitsch depictions of prospectors, Eskimos, and Indians. Kagin’s top-ranked set contains high-grade specimens with excellent photos.
