1961 Alabama So-Called Dollar Alabama. Mobile. 1961 So-Called Dollar. HK-587, Turner-6. Mobile Anniversary. Silver. Plain Edge. Medal Turn. MS-66 NGC. Obv: bust of Jean Baptiste Lemoyne, 1711 to left, 1961 to right, JEAN BAPTISTE LEMOYNE / SIEUR DE BIENVILLE beneath but, COMMEMORATION DE DEUX CENT CINQUANTE ANNEES around. Rev: Arms of city in circle, FROM ENCHANTING TRADITION ENDURING PROGRESS in concentric outer circle, six furled flags, Old Glory at topmost position, 250th ANNIVERSARY on banner at bottom. Fully brilliant and extremely lustrous, this Gem so-called dollar is no doubt among the very finest examples of the issue available to today’s collectors. The surfaces are mark-free, and a whisper of pale golden iridescence engages the eye on both sides. This so-called dollar was authorized by the 86th Congress for the Mobile 250th Anniversary Celebration Corporation, and was produced at the Mother Mint in Philadelphia to the tune of 5,000 pieces in silver. Monsieur Lemoyne founded the city of Mobile in 1711 as the French capital of Louisiana.
