Most likely UNIQUE! The slab states “Struck Off Center”, “Mint Error”. It was struck by the U.S, Mint. Errors in So-Called Dollars are exceptionally scarce, and this is a very interesting Off Center strike. For an error striking to be graded MS 67, this is amazing. Overall the condition is excellent! The official medal struck for the Pan-American Exposition held in Buffalo, New York. Obverse features a standing heroic male atop a flying eagle. On the reverse is a relief map of the western hemisphere. Designed by George Thomas Brewster, dies engraved by the U.S. Mint and struck and sold at the U.S. Mint exhibit. Obverse die signed lower left. Originally cataloged as struck in silver, copper, and brass. What was cataloged as brass are in fact gold-plated copper.
