Owner Comments:
San Francisco’s exposition view (with a misplaced Firth Wheel), paired with a Golden Gate reverse. A version of the Golden Gate reverse appears on a coin box and SH 7-30. The gold-plated silver variety is the only silver medal known struck for the exposition; it is a low grade silver. Unsigned, this could be a Hanson piece as the obverse perimeter legends are very similar to SH 7-27, but they were made with different letter punches.
Rarity R-7, Weight 17.17 grams, Size 38 mm.
