Hudson-Fulton (Combined) Dollars HK-379
Quote from bill on September 1, 2012, 1:02 pmSeems like there are at least 10 of these bronze pieces around (HK-679 MS-61BN attached)... I think this is supposed to be a "tough" piece to find, but this one was sold recently for a decent price....

Quote from Pioneer on March 27, 2013, 8:32 pmWhile I am not a avid collector of the Hudson-Fulton Celebration, I thought i'd post some of the SCDs I have with original ribbons. I think this celebration is important as it showcases river transportation and New York City's upcoming, something that we can trace directly to HK-1 (Erie Canal) and HK-589 (Nassau Water Works). The event also showcased electricity again as other prior expos (Columbian, St Louis) and communication (US Postal Service). An excellent summary is available in: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hudson-Fulton_Celebration I will defer a post on the Elder pieces (HK-369 to HK-378) to anyone who is a guru on that subject.

Quote from Pioneer on June 26, 2017, 9:01 pmFound this at the 2013 Holabird-Kagin Auction at the Western States Token Society Show in Sacramento, CA. The condition isn't perfect but the price was ok. The reverse has green/red "toning"... which I wonder about needing to clean as I thought this was white metal...
