Nuttallburg, West Virginia & Banner Fork, Kentucky Fordson Coal Co. Inc. Mines owned by Henry Ford. This $1 token was struck in 1933 by the Osborne Register Company (ORCO) to replace a previously used Fordson dollar that was allegedly counterfeited. Bearing the bust of Abraham Lincoln, this "new" dollar would have been extremely difficult to counterfeit. Of the 13,000 originally struck, only three to five examples are known to exist today. |
