The gallery, on display at the Edward C. Rochette Money Museum in Colorado Springs, tells the story of the early English colony, which began with limited resources but grew into the world’s richest economy. Prized treasures, such as the 1933 eagle (gold $10); a rare 1855 Wass, Molitor & Company $50 California Territorial Gold piece; and a beautiful 1915 Panama Pacific Exposition commemorative set, unravel the deep ties between national money and the nation’s history.
Rare uncut paper money sheets from the famous Aubrey and Adeline Bebee collection demonstrate America’s determination to establish economic security through paper currency. Selections from the Baker-Manley collection of Washington medals, as well as federal and territorial gold coinage from the Dr. Carlson Chambliss donation enhance America’s inspiring monetary narrative.
