1898 Trans-Mississippi and International Exposition HK-283


Official brass medal of the Trans-Mississippi and International Exposition held at Omaha, Nebraska in 1898.
The obverse features a left facing female bust. The reverse offers a superb depiction of a plains Indian mounted on a
bareback pony spearing a bison (buffalo). The dies for the obverse of this medal were sculpted at the United States Mint at Philadelphia.
The reverse was designed by T.R. Kimball of Omaha, Nebraska

    My only example - picked this up on a whim at a small auction a number of years ago....I had seen a few listed in old Bowers and Merena catalogs so I knew a little bit about this history behind it.

    That is nice Joe, I think that is an ebay piece? It comes in two sizes, mine is the larger, like 55mm?

    Coincidentally, my latest acquisition; I don't think they come around often like this...but I don't know a whole lot about the series.
