Silver Dollar Bar at the Wagon Wheel Lodge

About:
This sticker reads: “THE SILVER DOLLAR BAR AT THE WAGON WHEEL LODGE ROCKTON, ILLINOIS”. I have this sticker on both a Morgan and Peace dollar. These coins can be found on Ebay and coin shows, so unless you just have to have it then wait for a sticker that is of good quality. The coins shown here are a Peace dollar and Morgan. I believe these coins were a souvenir pieces and probably dates from the 1950s.

History:
The Wagon Wheel Lodge opened by Walt Williamson in 1936. He had the 240 room lodge built from old bridge timbers and telephone poles. The lodge had 240 rooms and 4 furnished apartments. It included 4 dining rooms, 4 cocktail lounges, golf course and year round swimming pool. There was also indoor ice skating and riding stables. The lodge was open the entire year.
