AnkurJ: That 1901 Pan-Am. Exposition Medal is one of my all time favorites. It's beauty is no surprise considering that it was designed by Hermon A. MacNeil, who also designed the Standing Liberty Quarter! They were produced in bronze, silver, and gilded silver versions...not sure about gold. They are quite scarce so you are fortunate to own a silver one.
Also of interest is the sad fact that President Wm. McKinley was assassinated by an anarchist at that 1901 fair. >>
That is sad about the fair. I never knew that actually. Regarding the medals, I have all three and am very happy with the set .
