Description

This circa 1901-1905 bronze medal cataloged as F&H-125 features Theodore Roosevelt during his presidency. The Fuld-Higby catalog designation F&H-125 places this within the presidential series of U.S. Mint medals, documenting Roosevelt's energetic and transformative administration. Roosevelt, who assumed the presidency following the assassination of William McKinley in September 1901, was one of the most consequential presidents in American history, championing trust-busting, conservation, the Panama Canal, and the modernization of the U.S. Navy. His interest in numismatic art led directly to the famous collaboration with Augustus Saint-Gaudens that produced the 1907 Double Eagle and Eagle designs, widely regarded as the most beautiful American coins ever struck. This official Mint medal captures Roosevelt during the period when he was actively reshaping both the presidency and American coinage.
