2017 Medal Donald J. Trump Inauguration Brass

Coin Details

Description

This brass inaugural medal from 2017 commemorates Donald J. Trump's inauguration as the 45th President. The brass composition distinguishes this from the bronze (PCGS #76648) and silver (PCGS #947327) versions, offering a golden-colored alternative at moderate cost. Brass inaugural medals occupy a middle tier in the commemorative hierarchy, more distinctive than bronze but less expensive than silver or gold. Trump's inauguration was characterized by his pledge to "transfer power from Washington, D.C. and give it back to the people," a populist theme that had driven his campaign. The collector market for political campaign medals intersects with broader political memorabilia collecting, attracting enthusiasts whose interests span buttons, ribbons, posters, and other material culture of American elections. This brass medal represents one of several production variants created to serve different segments of the collector market.
