Description Commemorate your visit to Mammoth Cave National Park with this die-struck medallion created by master artisans. Great as a gift, to celebrate a trip or to just hold as a lasting reminder of your experience in America’s great outdoors, this splash-minted National Park medallion will be a timeless keepsake that you will treasure forever. Spread above and under the hills of south central Kentucky, Mammoth Cave National Park is home to the world’s largest known cave system. The huge expanse of sweeping chambers and sandstone labyrinths are complemented by the park’s above ground wonders which include an amazing display of biologically diverse ecosystems. The medallion’s obverse shows early inhabitants of the area, chiseling symbols into the cave walls. The reverse displays the unique life forms native to the underground areas of the park. Minted in deep relief using a special “splash minting” process, this coin is struck in a brass alloy and given a beautiful lacquered finished. Each coin measures 1 1/2 inch (38.1mm) in diameter.
