Two medals from Chicago’s World’s Columbian Exposition featuring Christopher Columbus holding an unfurled map within a decorative wreath.
The reverse shows Columbia seated beside a shield, with a standing Indigenous female figure, no doubt representing America, pointing toward the exposition buildings. An American eagle and an “E Pluribus Unum” banner appear above, with “1492–1892 / IV. Centennial” below.
Two available:
- Gold gilt surface
