New York Stock Exchange 1903 Medal and Additional Related Material Advertising Medal that was privately commissioned by Chas. Gregory & Co. 30 Broad St. NY. to Commemorate the construction and opening of the new (and now iconic) New York Stock Exchange building. Signed R. Laubenheimer at right bottom of building façade. Iridescent tone under dull proof like surfaces. 38mm Copper. Also included is a Lithograph on card stock of the façade Compliment's of the Corporation Trust Co. Folded and damaged. 2 pieces. This was one of the last 'famous" medals Rudolph designed and produced and its production was notorious for the number of times the die proofs went back and forth between RL and CG. 80 Silver and 25o bronzes were struck and delivered along with the dies to the client. The dies are now owned by the NY Numismatic Society. The example offered here is a bronze working proof and was not included in the 250 contract count.

Estimate: 200-400
