Description

HK-322d mixes the two styles of Exhibition Palace dollar from the 1904 Louisiana Purchase Exposition. Its obverse is the costed Mines and Metallurgy die of HK-320, giving that palace's dimensions and its half-million-dollar cost under "Worlds Fair St. Louis." Its reverse belongs to the plainer series: the Palace of Textiles, titled above and with "Saint Louis World's Fair / 1904" below, inside a very finely beaded border. Hibler and Kappen list it in aluminum with a reeded edge. Exhibition halls such as these numbered fifteen at the fair, set among lagoons and gardens with some 1,200 pieces of statuary. Aluminum, 36 mm.
