Description

By the 1900 campaign Gorham had raised the figure. HK-782 (Schornstein 10), dated July 4th 1900, states in ten straight lines that it takes 870 grains, not the 412 1/2 in a government dollar, to equal one gold dollar, and ends with the maker's name, Gorham Mfg. Co., and Silversmiths. The reverse repeats the cartwheel of the 1896 piece HK-780 (Zerbe 5) and adds three curved lines above the wheel: the dollar's 412 1/2 grains come to 47 cents 4 mills in gold, and 870 grains to a full 100 cents. Neither face has a rim. It is struck in silver and measures 52 mm. The cartwheel side alone, uniface, is HK-1013.
