I have two of this coin, as photographed. Please let me know immediately after you buy and pay for it which one you want.  If I don't hear from you in a short time, I will send you one of them randomly.


This rare elongated cent from the 1933 Chicago World's Fair features the Fort Dearborn Courtyard design.


Made of copper and produced in the United States, this coin is a must-have for any collector of exonumia or elongated coins.


The design showcases the historic fort and is a great addition to any collection.


The coin is in excellent shape and has been well-preserved over the years.


It would make a great gift for any history or coin enthusiast. Don't miss your chance to own a piece of Chicago's rich history.



It is listed in the Lee Martin and Dottie Dow Yesterday's Elongateds catalog, on page 52, as catalog number ILL-CPIE-71.


What you see is what you get - I did not use any stock photos for this listing.

 

I combine shipping!

 

The combined shipping policy is relevant ONLY for PINS, WINGS, SAMPLE SLABS, COINS, ELONGATED COINS, TOKENS, MEDALS, and other SMALL ITEMS, is the full price for the auction with the highest shipping cost and then one additional dollar ($1) for each additional auction won.

 

Larger items will be packed, weighed, and combined as well.


If you win a few of my sales, please ask to receive a combined invoice for everything you won.

 

International buyers - you must contact me before you bid to accurately determine the actual shipping cost! 's standard shipping costs are ridiculously high and do not reflect the actual cost of shipping internationally!!!

 

Returns are not accepted, unless I make a mistake in the listing or I accidentally send you the wrong item (and such mistakes do, unfortunately, happen, though seldom).

 

If you have ANY question - please ask ahead of the closing of the auction, and please be kind as to give me a few hours to respond.

 

Shipping is via the cheapest method I can find, which is via USPS Ground Advantage. If you want me to ship it any other way, such as Priority USPS, UPS, or FedEx, please contact me BEFORE buying the item, so I can research the cost. I can ship with any carrier, any way you want!

 

IMPORTANT NOTICE ABOUT SHIPPING COSTS FOR LARGER ITEMS - I use's system to calculate the shipping cost via USPS Ground Advantage, according to the weight, dimensions and your location. Many times, for the LARGER items, I can probably ship it for a much lesser cost with UPS or FedEx!  Please send me your zip code, and what you see as the shipping cost, and I will quote a much more accurate shipping cost to you!

 

This item comes from a smoke-free, dog-loving home. We have a beautiful dog, who loves to spread her hair on everything.  Although I do my best to clean everything that I ship out, encountering some of her lovely hair is a possibility.


I love to recycle, so there's a good chance that I will ship in a previously used envelope or box, and use paper and used grocery bags as packing and padding materials.

 

All of my store items have a MAKE AN OFFER option. If you make a stupid offer, I might counter with a stupid offer of my own. An offer for a few dollars less is reasonable.  An offer for half of the listed price is not.

 

Good luck bidding!!!
