Receive a Free Commemorative Coin from Minted Assets
The commemorative coins will be available at the Minted Assets booth, number 730. They are available with limited quantity* during the 2024 World’s Fair of Money®.
The American Numismatic Association and Minted Assets is proud to present the first ever decimal denominated legal tender coin issued to celebrate the Chicago World’s Fair of Money®!
The obverse design shows an allegorical figure of NOMISMA, which is the Greek word for “Money.” She is shown holding the World’s Fair of Money show logo. E Pluribus Unum graces the legend as a fitting tribute to the show’s mission of bringing the people in the hobby together for the convention.
The reverse depicts a proud American bald eagle in flight over Cloud Gate, also known as “The Bean.” The majestic eagle is shown holding a rose in its talons which symbolizes the city of Rosemont where the convention is held. An image of Dr. George F. Heath can be seen in front of Cloud Gate. Dr. Heath was the founder of the ANA and held the very first convention in the city of Chicago in 1891. Charles E. Barber originally created this image on a Galvano in the early 1900s. The image was later turned into a medal for the ANA.
*Limited quantity available. No more than 200 coins will be distributed per day.
