Description
Panama-Pacific International Exposition
Five-Slot Shreve & Co. Copper Frame
(1915) Panama-Pacific International Exposition Five-Coin Copper
Frame. 8x10 inches. A rare velvet-lined glass and hammered
copper frame that originally housed a five-coin set of
Panama-Pacific Exposition commemorative coins, including a half
dollar, gold dollar, quarter eagle, and one each of the round and
octagonal fifty dollar pieces. The frame was made by Shreve & Co.
in San Francisco, whose stamp is seen on the top edge of the copper
portion. The purple banner and text cards do not show any notable
fading, although those for the half dollar and round fifty are
crinkled at the top. The gold lettering is all clear, and the
velvet lining is intact. Some handling wear is evident around the
edges of the copper frame. It is believed that only about 30 Shreve
& Co. copper frames for the five-coin set are known.
