Description

Pair of Uncertified Coca-Cola Bottling Convention Gilt Brass Rounds With Panama-Pacific Obverse. Gilt brass, 45 mm diameter. Included here by way of association with the "so-called slugs." The obverses depict Minerva as on the Panama-Pacific fifty dollar commemoratives, while the reverses show a crudely engraved, bespectacled owl touting Coca-Cola. Struck for the 1915 Coca-Cola Bottlers' Convention. The lot includes an original with honey-gold patina and a brighter modern facsimile with low central detail.
From The Jankovsky Collection of California Slug Facsimiles.
