ITPC SPRING 2023 BLOW-OUT AUCTION
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 5/23/2023
In 1955, Armour inserted a plastic "coin" into packages of hot dogs. A raised profile of a ballplayer is on the front along with the player’s name and team. On the back, between a diamond diagram and crossed bats are name, team, position, birthplace and date, batting and throwing preference, and 1954 hitting or pitching record. The coins measure 1-1/2" in diameter and are unnumbered. They can be found in a variety of colors, some of which are much scarcer than others and elicit higher prices from Armour specialists who have studied their relative scarcities.
This coin is of the NY Yankees star Yogi Berra. It is in beautiful condition.
