Anyone ever see this Columbian Expo token struck over 40 year old Arrows and Rays quarter?

I kept looking at the rays on the reverse of this token and thought it was overstruck an 1853 Arrows and Rays quarter until I confirmed it by reading the description. It was struck in 1893 so that would mean the coin was 40 years old when it was overstruck.
