Description

This 2020 medal commemorates the 400th anniversary of the Mayflower's arrival at Plymouth, Massachusetts, in 1620. The quadricentennial marked four hundred years since the Pilgrims established Plymouth Colony, an event foundational to American identity and the Thanksgiving tradition. The Mayflower Compact, signed aboard the ship before the passengers disembarked, established one of the first frameworks of self-governance in the New World. The 2020 anniversary was observed by both the United States and the United Kingdom, recognizing the shared heritage of the Pilgrim story. Private medal producers including the Franklin Mint, Medallic Art Company, and numerous smaller firms have supplemented U.S. Mint production, creating a rich and diverse medallic landscape for American collectors. This medal captures one of the seminal events in American history at a milestone anniversary.
