Coin Details

Description

This 1989 bronze medal at 1 1/2 inches commemorates the Bicentennial of the United States Treasury, serving as the standard U.S. Mint retail version of the Treasury anniversary medal. The 1 1/2-inch bronze format is the Mint's workhorse size for commemorative medals sold through its catalog and retail operations. The Treasury Bicentennial in 1989 celebrated two centuries of financial management that transformed America from a debt-ridden post-revolutionary republic into the world's largest economy. Bronze medals have served as the workhorse composition for American commemoratives, providing a durable and affordable medium that allowed broad distribution while maintaining the artistic quality of the original designs. This medal pairs with the larger 76mm version (PCGS #932505) in the Mint's standard two-size medal program.
