1893 Chicago Columbian Exposition Saint Gaudens Award Medal. Sculpted by Augustus Saint Gaudens to commerate the 400th Anniversary of Columbus's arrival in the New World. The original reverse was deemed to be too "racy" and The U.S. Mint's Chief Engraver/Designer Charles Barber created a new reverse design which was used on the coin.

Virginia, Minn Iron Nickel. This coin was made in hopes that different cities would have coins made with their city's name on the reverse. Quite common.
