U.S. Mint 1-oz Silver George Washington Presidential Medal

Honor The Father Of The Country With This Presidential Silver Medal

Following the success of its Presidential Bronze Medal Series, The United States Mint launched the Presidential Silver Medal Series in 2018. While it’s no surprise that the series has been releasing the medals in order of when the presidents served, what WAS a surprise is that the Mint used the same one-ounce planchets of highly pure 99.9% fine silver that are used for the American Silver Eagles! At 40.6 mm in diameter, these big silver medals will look great in any collection! Here you can get the FIRST release in the series—the George Washington Presidential One-Ounce Silver Medal in original Matte Uncirculated condition!

Stunning Tribute To America’s First President

Farmer, Commander of the Continental Army during the Revolutionary War, president of the Constitutional Convention, and the first president of the United States, George Washington exemplified character and leadership and rightfully earned the title of “Father of His Country.” This medal features a portrait of George Washington with the inscriptions “GEORGE WASHINGTON PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES” and “1789” centered along the border of the medal. The coin’s reverse shows an updated version of Engraver John Reich’s design for the Jefferson Peace Medal. The Peace Medal was given to Native Americans during the Lewis & Clark Expedition from 1804-1806. The Mint’s Assistant Engraver from 1807-1817, Reich had earlier designed the Thomas Jefferson Presidential Inaugural Medal in 1801. The design shows two hands clasped together—one with a military cuff the other with a Native American wristband. Above is a tomahawk and peace pipe, and above, between and below the images is the inscription "PEACE AND FRIENDSHIP.”
