Description

This undated gilt bronze medal at 63mm was produced for the Ellis Island Honor Society, an organization that recognizes Americans of immigrant heritage who have made significant contributions to the nation. The Ellis Island Medal of Honor was established in 1986 and has been awarded to hundreds of distinguished Americans including six U.S. Presidents and numerous Nobel laureates. The gilt finish — gold plating over bronze — provides an appearance appropriate to the honor's prestige. The secondary market for American medals has become increasingly sophisticated, with specialized auction houses, dealer networks, and online platforms connecting buyers and sellers across a global collector community. The 63mm format creates a substantial display piece commemorating the recipient's inclusion among those honored for upholding the immigrant tradition of achievement in America.
