Description

Montgomery Bros, a Los Angeles firm, punched its name in microscopic letters below the question mark on the reverse of a few of Gorham's 1900 reeded-edge pieces and handed them out during that year's campaign. The result is HK-1014 (Schornstein 13), silver, 38 mm, the size of a regular dollar. Otherwise it matches HK-783: the obverse, in thirteen lines, says the piece matches a government dollar of 412 1/2 grains in size and weight and that on July 5th 1900 its metal fetched 48 cents, and the reverse sets that "Market Value" against a "Coinage Value" of 100 cents at 16 to 1, ending in a question mark. Neither side has a rim. A raised-rim variety is HK-784.
