| Although quiet and soft-spoken, Harmon Killebrew epitomized raw power. He hit an astounding 573 career round-trippers, surpassed only by Babe Ruth among American League sluggers. Over his 22-year career with the Senators, Twins, and Royals, he tied or led the league in home runs six times, belted 40 or more on eight occasions and knocked in 100 or more runs nine times. Killer won the American League MVP Award in 1969, when he led the league in home runs, RBI, walks and on-base percentage. The Highland Mint presents Harmon Killebrew in the legends Series of Baseball Photo Mint in a black molded wood frame and team colored double matting.

Mounted between both Gold Coins is a numbered certificate of authenticity that also lists his Hall of Fame Induction as well as his career accomplishments. This is officially licensed by MLB and is limited to 1000 pieces. |
