<B>1893 Columbian Expo-Ferris Wheel, HK-170, AU58 Uncertified.</B></I> Aluminum, 44.5 mm, "very scarce" (HK, 1963). Just a touch of rub on the highpoints separates this still-lustrous piece from Mint State. The obverse depicts the Administration Building. The Ferris Wheel, depicted on the reverse, was one of the wonders of the Columbian Exposition. The reverse peripheral legend reads "Greatest Mechanical Achievement of the Age / Height 264 Feet / Weight 4300 Tons / Capacity 2160 Persons / Engines 2000 Horsepower." A marvelous so-called dollar to represent this mechanical marvel.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
