Description
Superb Group of 1892-1893 World's Columbian Exposition Half Dollar Souvenir Items.
Included are: Original leather pouch for a single half dollar. Maroon Leather, gilt lettering and ornamentation. About Uncirculated. A superb example with only trivial handling. Bright gilding with no losses and lovely color. The nicest we recall seeing. Original 1892 Wells, Fargo & Company Souvenir Card, with an 1892 half dollar inset. Minor surface marks but beautifully preserved. Nice salmon color on the obverse, green on the reverse. With the original presentation envelope, bearing two Wells, Fargo & Company wax seals. The envelope is a bit worn, but names the agent of the firm, at Hutchinson, Kansas, that this was presented to. Worn and a little chipped, but intact and quite rare. (Total: 3 pieces)
From the Candace Kagin Collection.
