Art1.2 Posted April 9, 2013 Report Share Posted April 9, 2013 Bill's 1860 We all have our hobbies - George Lovett's medal honoring coin and medal collectors. A popular commentary on our devotion to our hobby. Bill's 1876 Original Dickeson Continental Dollar Restrike - Dickeson had new dies made and restruck selected colonial era coins for the 1876 celebration of the birth of America. The dies were later used by Elder, Bowers, and then Bashlow for further retrikes. Bill's 1915 Official Medal of the Panama Pacific International Exposition - Robert Aiken's medal celebrating the opening of the Panama Canal and the uniting of the two hemispheres. Struck by the U.S. mint at the 1915 exposition in San Francisco. Gold-plated medals (such as the one pictured here) were struck at the Philadelphia mint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
