Exhibition Medal - There was a Canadian Commission at the 1876 International Exhibition held in Philadelphia. Exhibits were solicited from the Canadian provinces with a great response. The exhibits were organized in 10 categories with 10 divisions in each category; therefore there were 100 sub-categories. Class 103 was labeled " Building Stones, Marble, Slate, etc. Robert Reid of Montreal won this silver medal for a "Marble Mantle Piece".
