Dennis Tucker, publisher, Whitman Publishing, said regarding the Wilson Dollar 100-Year Anniversary medals, “The Wilson Dollar is one of the most historically significant issues among the medals numismatists identify as ‘So-Called Dollars.’ We value it for the unique way it connects the people of the United States to the people of the Philippines—a golden (and silver and bronze!) symbol of a deeply important connection that resonates to this day.” “In Whitman’s Mega Red, the expanded edition of the Red Book, we devote more than a page and a half to the Wilson Dollar. This is a measure of the importance of this intriguing, richly layered, and many-storied medal.
