I just saw the Standing Liberty and was jealous but that San Diego coin is just icing on the cake. You had a great day!
Rest in Peace

I have always been a fan of the Columbian Exposition Halves. Very nice example! I worked at the University of Chicago for 28 years. The 1892 Columbian Exposition and the 1933 Worlds fair contributed to the largest Campus expansions until the construction boom there in the last 10 years. Most of the existing buildings were built during these celebrations. The Midway for the 1933 Worlds fair ran right through the campus! It is now officially designated as part of the "Famous Boulevards" of the United States sites. Mike

Thanks guys !!!

Mike, the Columbians are SO easy to find in bright white UNC, but I spent a long time looking for a "crusty" EF-ish one like this.
