FREE: 1893 Chicago Silver Half Dollar Worlds Fair Commemorative Coin

The listing, 1893 Chicago Silver Half Dollar Worlds Fair Commemorative Coin has ended.

In August 1892 Congress specially authorized the coinage of five million half dollars for sale during the 1892 World’s Columbian Exposition to honor the 400th anniversary of Columbus' “discovery” of the New World. This was the first of the great World’s Fairs to be honored with a commemorative coin. The first issue was dated 1892. The Exposition was scheduled to open in Chicago in October 1892, but did not open until May 1893, at which time additional coins bearing this new date were struck.

Thus is a highly collectiable coin. I am starting the auction very low. The credits start at the equal amount of five dollars. Do your research and view the prices for these coins. Shipping is FREE in the USA only. Sorry.

Thank you and view my other listings.
