Farran Zerbe 1904 Advertising and Informational Medal, Louisiana Purchase Expo

Description

I have for sale an advertising and informational medal struck by Farran Zerbe and distributed at the 1904 Louisiana Purchase Exposition that was held in St. Louis, Missouri.  The medal is aluminum, it is two inches in diameter and graded AU 50 by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation & it comes in one of their large holders, 5 3/4 by 7 5/8 inches.  Zerbe had the numismatic concession at the exposition.  Zerbe was also president of the American Numismatic Association from 1908 till 1910.  The medal obverse at the rim reads FARRAN ZERBE NUMISMATIST - L.P.E. SAINT LOUIS.  In the center circle it reads RARE U.S. - COINS.  Around the center circle there are denominations of U.S. coins listed around the outside and as you read downward toward the center the premium dates and their values in fine condition are listed.  On the reverse in the center circle it reads VALUE - F.Z. - COPYRIGHTED - 1904 - FINE.  Again around the center circle there are coin denominations and their values are listed same as obverse.  Please see my EBAY STORE  at  TE COLLECTABLES.  (17,360))
