1898 TRANS-MISSISSIPPI AND INTERNATIONAL EXPOSITIONUS MINT MEDALHK-283 PCGS MS62
THIS MEDAL HAS EXCELLENT DETAILS. THE OBVERSE HAS SOME BEAUTIFUL SUBTLE TONING. THE REVERSE HAS NEARLY PERFECT GILT SURFACES. MUCH MORE ATTRACTIVE IN HAND, THE PHOTOS REALLY DON\'T DO IT JUSTICE.
A WONDERFUL EXAMPLE OF THE OFFICIAL US MINT MEDAL FROM THE 1898 EXPOSITION IN OMAHA NEBRASKA. THE OBVERSE WAS DESIGNED BY EMIL FUCHS AND THE REVERSE BY THOMAS KIMBALL OF OMAHA. THE DIES WERE MOST LIKELY ENGRAVED BY CHARLES BARBER OR GEORGE MORGAN AT THE US MINT IN PHILIDELHIA AND STRUCK AT THE US MINT EXHIBIT ON A PRESS SENT FROM SAN FRANCISCO AT THE EXPOSITION.
