1965 USA New York World's Fair Masonic Center Pressed Penny
The 1964-65 World's Fair, held in New York City, featured over 100 exhibitors. One of them was the Masonic Brotherhood, whose pavilion featured Masonic history, symbolism, and memorabilia for guests to explore. The 1964-65 World's Fair also coincided with the rise in popularity of the pressed penny. These souvenirs were produced with hand-cranked machines, making them fun and interactive as well as small and inexpensive, and a wide range of designs made them highly collectible. This pressed penny features the Masonic Center on the pressed reverse, showing the unique exterior shaped like the Masonic square and compass.
