"Small souvenir California gold pieces were made by several manufacturers in the early 20th century. A series of 36 pieces, in the size of 25c, 50c, and $1 coins, was made by the M.E. Hart Company of San Francisco to honor Alaska and various Western states. The Hart Company also marketed the official commemorative Panama-Pacific gold coins form the 1915 Exposition and manufactured plush copper cases for them. Similar cases were acquired by Farrran Zerbe, who mounted 15 coomplete sets of what he termed "Coins of the West." Intact, framed 36-piece sets ate rare; individual specimens are among the most popular of all souvenir pieces of that era." ('18 Red Book, 409)
