Owner Comments:

This So-called Dollar is the second of four different medals that were struck for the 1892-3 World’s Columbian exposition that depict the Ferris Wheel and are collectively known as Ferris Wheel Dollars. It is made of aluminum, has bright proof-like surfaces and excellent eye appeal. It is 1 of only 2 examples that NGC has graded MS-66 PL. None have been graded higher, making it tied for the title of finest known. The overall rarity is R4 (201-500 known).
