This estate coin pendant features an 1893 Columbian half dollar and measures approximately 1 1/2 inches in length, weighing 14 grams. Dating to the contemporary era, the coin shows a detailed portrait of Christopher Columbus on one side and the Santa Maria under full sail above the eastern and western hemispheres on the other, framed by the inscription “World’s Columbian Exposition Chicago.” The coin is held in a high polish bezel frame with a hinged top and a round jump ring bail, so both sides can be shown off when worn.
The Columbian half dollar was the first commemorative coin issued by the United States, struck for the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition in Chicago to mark the 400th anniversary of Columbus’s voyage to the Americas. The obverse was designed by Charles E. Barber and the reverse by George T. Morgan, two of the most celebrated engravers in U.S. Mint history. Minted in 90% silver, these coins were sold to fairgoers as souvenirs, and they remain a favorite among collectors of American history and numismatics.
