About Fame in medals, I don't think I ever shared mine of the Exposition Universelle de Paris, 1867

It is one of the smaller side ones. I know it was rubbed in the reverse, I did it. Was very, very dirty when I got it.

I only have one medal from the 1939-40 World Fair, which I think is quite a common type.

More interesting is the second medal, produced by the Medallic Art Company of New York, and sold at the New York World Fair to raise funds for aid to occupied Czechoslovakia.

I find the contrasting world views between USA and Europe at this critical time in world history fascinating!

Cheers

Just realized that I've never posted this encased 1943 Mercury dime from the 1964 New York World's Fair.
