Coin Details
Description
This 1973 Franklin Mint bronze medal at 72mm with antique finish is the large-format version of the Nixon-Agnew second inauguration commemoration. The 72mm diameter — nearly three inches — provides a substantial canvas for detailed portrait and design work. The antique finish, a specialized surface treatment that simulates the patina of aged bronze, gives this medal a distinguished, museum-quality appearance. Large-format inauguration medals with special finishes represent the premium tier of the Franklin Mint's political commemorative line. At this size, the medal functions as a display piece suitable for framing or cabinet exhibition. The antique finish was popular with collectors who preferred the understated elegance of simulated patina over the bright surfaces of standard proof or uncirculated finishes.
