NumisEd Pillar of the Community United States 5177 Posts	Posted 10/06/2025 4:07 pm We could change this thread into "Show us your Art Deco related coins, medals, and tokens" thread. What do you think, moderator jbuck? Report this Post to the Staff

tdziemia Pillar of the Community United States 7934 Posts	Posted 10/06/2025 5:05 pm Quote: Nothing about that design is art deco. I agree. While I am not an art expert, I'm not sure how much of what's been posted is on target. MintedNotPrinted's German coins are an obvious yes; also ijn's medal. I would be surprised if the Dutch coins would fit. Belgium was in the same mode in the 1990s. Some kind of late 20th century modern. Blech.

commems CCF Master Historian of USA Commemoratives United States 12258 Posts	Posted 10/06/2025 5:55 pm Here's a medal by Emil Robert Zettler of Chicago for the 1933-34 Century of Progress International Exposition. The overall aesthetic of the Exposition was heavily rooted in the Art Deco style; the official medal of the Exposition reflects this. The medal's obverse depicts a symbolic representation of "A Century of Progress." It presents a young male figure, with outstretched arms and legs; he is unclothed except for a stylized cloth across his mid-section. He has one leg planted on a column marked "Research" and "1833" and the other on the "Industry" and "1933" column; he is shown looking toward the "Research" column. The design is meant to symbolize how the inventions of the past have yielded modern (circa 1933) achievements.

commems CCF Master Historian of USA Commemoratives United States 12258 Posts	Posted 10/07/2025 07:14 am This coin was mentioned above, but the reference wasn't accompanied by an image. So... Here's the 1935 Connecticut Tercentenary Half Dollar. It incorporates an eagle on its reverse that is considered to be in the Art Deco style due to its simple, bold and modern (circa 1935) design that exhibits strength and power.

NumisRob Bedrock of the Community United Kingdom 17903 Posts	Posted 10/07/2025 08:00 am I think of this Bolivian 10-centavos as being Art Deco, especially the lettering and reverse. It reminds me of 1930s travel posters: My Trade List: https://goccf.com/t/194596 My Wants List: https://goccf.com/t/191710 Report this Post to the Staff
