Interesting fact

The C. Bechtler 1 Dollar Token from North Carolina is an interesting piece of history because it was created during a time when the United States was still a collection of individual states, and private entities were allowed to issue their own currency. This coin was made of gold and weighs 1.93 grams, making it a rare and valuable collector's item today.
