(1904) So-Called Dollar HK-317, Palace of Liberal Arts
Strike TypeCoin Details
Description
The Palace of Liberal Arts at the 1904 St. Louis fair measured 525 by 750 feet and cost 475,000 dollars, according to the reverse of HK-317, which shows the building and its grounds under "Worlds Fair St. Louis." The obverse repeats the Cascade Gardens die of HK-315, gardens with a building behind them and the same heading. Hibler and Kappen file it with the Exhibition Palace dollars, a group of reeded-edge medals that paired views of the exposition's buildings with their dimensions and costs. The Liberal Arts reverse turns up again behind the Palace of Manufacturers on HK-322a and HK-322b. This piece is brass, 36 mm; the aluminum version is HK-318.
