Description

This 34mm Denver Mint presidential medal features Warren G. Harding with the notation "Inaugurated 1921." Harding's presidency is remembered primarily for the corruption scandals — particularly Teapot Dome — that were revealed after his death in office on August 2, 1923. However, his administration also achieved the Washington Naval Conference and established the Bureau of the Budget. The rarity spectrum for political campaign medals ranges from common pieces produced in large quantities for mass distribution to unique or near-unique presentation examples that command premium prices in specialized auctions. The Denver Mint series places Harding alongside other presidents in a standardized format that treats each office holder equally regardless of historical reputation, providing collectors with a comprehensive and democratic presidential gallery.
