      Description

      Es difícil de creer que una moneda que tuvo una acuñación de 11,500.00 se haya convertido en la más famosa y rara de las monedas de plata acuñadas en Filadelfia. ¿Por qué sucedió esto? Todos los números son bastante escasos, pero el año 1937 es más difícil de encontrar. La razón parece ser que en 1950 las monedas se liberaron como garantía, ya que los billetes estaban respaldados por reservas de oro y divisas extranjeras, por lo que el Banco Nacional decidió conservar una cierta cantidad de cada año con fines numismáticos y enviar a fundir el resto. Por error, todas las monedas de 1937 fueron enviadas para fundir, pero al cargar el barco, se rompió una bolsa de este año y su contenido cayó al suelo. No todas las monedas fueron recuperadas, por lo que esas monedas y las que circularon son las pocas que quedan hoy en día.

      It is hard to believe that a coin that had a mintage of 11,500.00 became the most famous and rarest of the silver coins minted in Philadelphia. Why did this happen? All numbers are pretty scarce, but 1937 is harder to find. The reason seems to be that in 1950 the coins were released as collateral, since the banknotes became backed by gold and foreign exchange reserves, so the National Bank decided to keep a certain amount of each year for numismatic purposes and send to melt the rest. By mistake all the 1937 coins were sent to melt down, but when loading the ship, a bag from this year broke and its contents fell to the ground. Not all the coins were recovered, so those coins and those that circulated are the few that remain with us today.
