| 背面描述 | The reverse features the bold heading MILAN at the top of the field, below which eight lines of inscribed text recount the historical highlights of Milan, Ohio, including Edison's birth on February 11, 1847, the Moravian village period (1804–1809), the platting and incorporation of Milan Village, the completion of the Ships' Canal to Lake Erie on July 4, 1839, Milan's status as a leading wheat port second only to Odessa, Russia (1839–1869), and the flourishing shipbuilding industry (1840–1867, 75 vessels built). The designation SOUVENIR DOLLAR appears in small raised letters along the lower rim. |

Milan, Ohio issued these brass souvenir dollars through the same wave of municipal and commemorative trade dollars that flooded the collectibles market in the 1970s — a period when hundreds of American towns capitalized on local pride and the broader bicentennial enthusiasm to produce non-monetary pieces aimed squarely at tourists and coin collectors. Edison was born in Milan in 1847, though his family relocated to Port Huron, Michigan when he was seven, a fact the town has never stopped compensating for.
