    Description

    1893 Columbian Exposition Chicago Worlds Fair. "I Will" motto in shield held by woman. Manufactured by Rogers Silver Co. dated 1893. Scarce Example. Condition is "Used". It is unmarked and Rogers was known for plate so I imagine it is plate. There are no "wear through" spots to be seen in the plate. A scarcer example of the genre. Not polished. Shipped with USPS First Class.
    The I Will Woman was in the architecture above the main entrance to the fair. See:
