During the 1930s through the 1950s, popular souvenir medal manufacturers (such as L.S. Green Mfg. Co. and Sipco) produced heavy cast good-luck coins and paperweights with interchangeable central dies. Regional tourist spots—including the National Museum in historic Gettysburg, Pennsylvania—customized these pieces to sell as gifts celebrating Lincoln\'s 1863 Gettysburg Address. Today, these mid-century paperweights remain collectible across presidential, Civil War, and good-luck token categories.
