Western Pennsylvania Numismatic Society
Pittsburgh Exposition Medals
The Western Pennsylvania
Numismatic Society was founded on June 14, 1878 in Pittsburgh, PA. To
publicize the club and promote the hobby an exhibit was mounted at the
Great Pittsburgh Exposition of 1878 and 1879; souvenir medals were
issued for the event.
