Secure an outstanding, historically significant piece of 19th-century California exonumia with this 1891 Stockton Courthouse Dedication So-Called Dollar (HK-623). Issued to commemorate the grand opening of the majestic San Joaquin County Courthouse in Stockton, California, this medal stands as a beautiful testament to the architecture and civic pride of the Gilded Age West Coast.
This raw medal boasts exceptional preservation. The obverse displays a sharply rendered, angled architectural perspective of the grand courthouse building, bordered by the crisp legend "Dedicated A.D. 1891". The reverse is highly unique and tells a fascinating piece of local history, featuring elegant, flowing cursive that reads: "Compliments of the Sheriff's Office, Tho's Cunningham, Sheriff, Stockton, San Joaquin Co., Cal."
Struck in aluminum—which was highly prized, costly to produce, and celebrated for its lightweight luster during the late 19th century—this piece has incredibly clean surfaces. It completely avoids the heavy handling marks, rim bruises, and deep gray oxidation that typically afflict unprotected 1890s aluminum tokens. The fields retain a brilliant, reflective quality with sharp details outlining the courthouse windows, pillars, and text. Vetted by a dealer with extensive grading tenure, this beautifully preserved HK-623 is a centerpiece-worthy asset for any specialized California history or So-Called Dollar collection.
