(2017) Medal Obama Second Term Bronze

Coin Details

Description

This bronze medal from 2017 commemorates the second term of President Barack Obama. Obama's second term (2013-2017) saw the implementation of the Affordable Care Act, the normalization of relations with Cuba, the Paris Climate Agreement, the legalization of same-sex marriage by the Supreme Court, and continued economic recovery from the Great Recession. As the second-term medal in the presidential series, this piece complements the first-term medal (PCGS #627254) to form a complete set documenting Obama's eight years in office. The U.S. Mint traditionally produces separate medals for each presidential term, allowing the designs to reflect different portraits or themes appropriate to each period of service. Obama's two-term presidency generated substantial medallic output from both the U.S. Mint and private issuers, creating a rich collecting field for modern presidential numismatics.
