Owner Comments:
Schwaab Stamp and Seal of Milwaukee produced four signed medals, at least one badge, and perhaps other medals and badges for the exposition. The images on the medals are based on early conceptual drawings produced by the exposition publicity committee. On this variation of the state seal, Minerva has her left leg exposed. Microscopic S.S. & S. CO. MILWAUKEE at the bottom.
Rarity R-6, Weight 5.25 grams, Size 43.6 mm.
This example is tied for Top Pop with (2) other MS 63 PL's in the NGC census as of 1/2024.
I previously sold an NGC MS 62 PL example on my website for $585.00.
