Description

This undated (circa 1945) silver medal commemorates President Franklin D. Roosevelt and the Atlantic Charter, the joint declaration issued by Roosevelt and British Prime Minister Winston Churchill on August 14, 1941, aboard warships off the coast of Newfoundland. The Atlantic Charter established the shared Anglo-American vision for the postwar world, including national self-determination, free trade, freedom of the seas, and the disarmament of aggressor nations. These principles became the foundation for the United Nations Charter. Silver medals occupy a premium tier in the commemorative hierarchy, with their precious metal content signaling special significance and ensuring that recipients and collectors valued these pieces above base metal alternatives. The silver composition reflects the significance of this diplomatic milestone, produced as a tribute to FDR's role in shaping the postwar international order.
