- 1876 U.S. Centennial Exposition. Liberty Bell-Independence Hall Dollar. HK-23. Rarity-8. Silver. MS-61 (PCGS). 38 mm. Lovely frosty to semi-prooflike surfaces are pleasingly toned in iridescent champagne-pink and steel-olive. The strike is sharply executed with all design elements crisp. Designed by Key of Philadelphia and struck and issued by Deihl of the same city. One of numerous medallic tributes to America on her 100th birthday, this medal features the Liberty Bell, a national treasure cast in bronze by John Pass and Charles Stow. The bell is three feet tall, 12 feet around at the rim, and weighs 2,080 pounds. It cracked in 1752 and was recast by Pass and Stow the following year. In 1835 it cracked beyond fixing and has been on display at Independence Hall in Philadelphia for more than a century, fitting surroundings for America's most famous bell.
