Description

Two exhibition halls of the 1904 St. Louis fair appear on HK-322c, labeled the Varied Industries Building on the obverse and the Electricity Building on the reverse, each over the line "Saint Louis World's Fair / 1904." This medal belongs to the plainer group without sizes or costs, framed by very finely beaded borders. The same two halls appear on other Exhibition Palace dollars with their dimensions, the Palace of Varied Industries on HK-321 and the Palace of Electricity on HK-319. Hibler and Kappen list this piece in aluminum with a reeded edge. Visitors to the Louisiana Purchase Exposition could see the earliest motor cars, aeronautics and wireless telegraphy. Aluminum, 36 mm.
