Coker’s Pedigreed 
GOLD DOLLAR 
Coker’s Gold Dollar is perhaps the most widely planted 
variety in the flue-cured belt and has added many millions 
of dollars to the value of the crop, which is evidence of its 
performance and dependability. 
Our best recommendation of our 1946 strain of Gold 
Dollar is that it is a pure line selection which has all the 
good Gold Dollar qualities that seventeen years of scientific 
breeding and an expert knowledge of tobacco can combine. 
This variety has been inbred for more than a dozen gen- 
erations in order to maintain and improve its good quali- 
ties and to furnish our customers with a dependable, uni- 
form and safe cigarette tobacco.
