- 1886 Eutopia Dollar. HK-1005. Rarity-8. Silver and Gold (bimetallic). MS-65+ (PCGS). 32 mm. A stunning, conditionally rare Gem Mint State example of this elusive and intriguing type. The gold center is deep olive-orange, the silver outer band richly and vividly toned in multiple iridescent colors. Sharply struck throughout with outstanding visual appeal. This type, a classic rarity among so-called dollars, was designed and struck by Nicholas Veeder of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania as a privately issued model illustrating the practicality of bimetallic coinage. The idea was unpopular at the time, and plans for bimetallic coinage were not adopted by the U.S. Mint. A rare survivor of a failed coinage proposal from the late 19th century.
