The original 1945, right out of the war was a piece that few hands could hold. War makes new paupers, dead people and millionaires for the profiteers. That piece was made during a time that gold was forbidden in the USA, which made it one of those historic treasures that could well have crossed the palm of some of the captains of industry, or military-industrial, or some lucky person of unusual fortune. Possibly for someone crossing a border that needed something shiny and small to ease the passage.
The possible stories that are conjured by the imagination of this exquisite coin will find someone that can see its worth, of that I have no doubt. The birth year of the last of the war babies, and there are some of those that would see this as a unique gift for a very special someone in their life. Someone with a Golden Anniversary, or other perfect occasion will cherish it.
