Nine-Piece Lot of Trans-Mississippi Expo Items
<B>Nine-Piece Lot of Trans-Mississippi Expo Items.</B></I> Nine medals, badges, and buttons, all relating to the Trans-Mississippi Exposition held in Omaha, Nebraska, in 1898. One of the pieces is a large (63-mm, 128.4-gm) medallion presented to Bishop & Company for crystallized fruit and candied citron, engraved by S.D. Childs & Co. The buttons were manufactured by Whitehead and Hoag, and the medal badges by Schwabb. A nice group that should entice collectors of this exposition.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
