2022 Custom Collector Coin ~ 1937 Cord 812 ~ limited quantities available

Auburn Automobile Company designer Gordon Buehrig styled the Cord 810 and 812. This 1937 ivory-colored Cord is a well-restored, numbers-matching example of the convertible coupe body style.

The company offered six different body styles for the Cord in 1937; all included the option of the supercharger. There were approximately three thousand Cords produced in 1936 and 1937. Cord production ended in August of 1937, signaling the end of the Auburn Automobile Company.

Only sixty-four Cord 812 convertible coupes were produced with a supercharger. Driven during WWII, a sticker for an "A" mileage ration issued to the general public allowed the owner to purchase up to four gallons of gas per week. 

The 2022 coin, featuring the 1937 Cord 812, is die struck on 3mm military brass and gold electroplated. The colors are enamel filled by hand then high temperature baked. These coins are sequentially numbered on side A with the museum logo and on side B show the original Cord logo and art deco flooring of the museum.

These coins are numbered, have a signed certificate of authenticity, come in a plastic capsule and a yellow/cream velvet bag to match the car.
