Legend of the Seas, an appropriate name for the ship to carry Jeff Shevlin's 2014 medal commemorating the 100th anniversary of the opening of the Panama Canal. Jeff, better known to collectors as the “So-Called Guy”, first thought about such a trip more than 10 years ago while examining the well-known 1914 Panama Canal Completion so-called dollar, HK-398. Recreating the passage while carrying a new batch of commemorative medals seemed feasible.
