A nice medal pairing that even the most discriminating Morgan Collector should appreciate.

This is a fantasy muling of an HK-222 obverse and an HK-832 Reverse. The aluminum medal from the World's Columbian Exposition is actually slightly smaller than the gilt bronze Whipple Dollar, circa 1878. They both grabbed my interest when I first paged through the Hibler-Kappen book and I finally have both and remembered to get them for a photo session. It's amazing how much of an impression Morgan's design has had on the hobby, this example serving to show that as much as any.
