(1970s)-D Medal Woodrow Wilson 34mm Inaugurated 1913

Coin Details

Description

This 34mm Denver Mint presidential medal features Woodrow Wilson with the notation "Inaugurated 1913." Wilson's presidency encompassed World War I, the Federal Reserve Act, and the failed campaign for the League of Nations. The Denver Mint series presents Wilson among his peers in a standardized format, documenting one of the most intellectually accomplished but personally flawed presidents in American history. Wilson's academic career as a political science professor and president of Princeton University made him unique among American presidents, and his idealistic vision of international cooperation through the League of Nations shaped global politics for decades even though the Senate rejected American membership. The study of campaign medal production reveals the commercial infrastructure that supported American political campaigns, from die sinking firms and medal manufacturers to distributors and retail outlets.
