No Date Medal George Washington 3" Bronze

Coin Details

Description

This undated 3-inch bronze medal of George Washington is a 76mm display-format version of the U.S. Mint's presidential medal for the first President. Washington's presence on medals and coins extends back to the earliest days of the republic — he appeared on numerous privately struck tokens and medals during the 1780s and 1790s, and his image has remained central to American numismatics ever since, most prominently on the quarter dollar since 1932. George Washington (1732-1799) served as the first President from 1789 to 1797, establishing virtually every precedent for the office. His decisions to form a cabinet, issue a proclamation of neutrality in European conflicts, suppress the Whiskey Rebellion, deliver a farewell address, and voluntarily step down after two terms created the template that forty-four successors have followed. Before the presidency, he commanded the Continental Army through eight years of revolutionary war, presided over the Constitutional Convention, and was unanimously elected by the Electoral College — twice. The 76mm bronze format showcases Washington's portrait at generous scale, revealing the full artistry of the Mint's engraving. At approximately 3 inches in diameter, this medal serves as a display piece suitable for framing, mounting, or cabinet exhibition. Washington 3-inch medals are among the most popular in the program due to the first president's enduring status as the symbol of American national identity and democratic governance.
