1883 MA HK-594 SO-CALLED DOLLAR EXHIBIT- FOREIGN PRODUCTS BOSTON, MA NGC MS 61

American Exposition of Foreign Products Official Medal 1883 · SH 3-51 WM · HK-594

THE ONLY EXAMPLE THAT I FIND SOLD BY A MAJOR AUCTION COMPANY IS AN NGC GRADED AU 58 EXAMPLE THAT HERITAGE AUCTIONS SOLD FOR $728.50 IN 2013.

A large spread eagle on the obverse. The Arts and Manufactures Building is on the reverse with a microscopic W. M. ST. below the building on the right.

Americans had no opportunity to see the advances of foreign art and industry since the 1876 Centennial Exposition. Boston sought to capitalize on its status as an important port and the hub of eight railway lines connecting to the entire rail system of the US and Canada. 40 nations exhibited in two exhibit halls, reserved exclusively for foreign arts, products, and manufacturers. One so-called dollar was struck for this exposition.

MY NGC REGISTRY SET "BRUCE THOMAS COLLECTION OF SO-CALLED DOLLARS AND OTHER MEDALS" WAS VOTED AS THE BEST CUSTOM SET FOR 2018 BY THE NGC REGISTRY AWARDS. I AM VERY PROUD OF THIS ACCOMPLISHMENT, AND THANKS TO NGC FOR THIS HONOR.

PLEASE BE ASSURED OF A FLAWLESS AND EASY TRANSACTION BY MY 100% POSITIVE FEEDBACK WHILE SELLING MANY NUMISMATIC ITEMS IN THE PAST 20 YEARS.

I WILL BE LISTING MANY MORE EXONUMIA ITEMS IN THE FUTURE, INCLUDING MANY SO-CALLED DOLLARS, DEWITT LISTED POLITICAL CAMPAIGN MEDALS, AND OTHER UNITED STATES HISTORIC MEDALS. THANK YOU FOR CONSIDERING MY LISTINGS TO ADD TO YOUR COLLECTION.
