Description Commemorate your visit to the White House with this die-struck medallion created by master artisans. Great as a gift, to celebrate a trip or to just hold as a timeless reminder of your experience, this National Landmark medallion will be a meaningful keepsake that you will enjoy forever. Located at 1600 Pennsylvania NW in Washington D.C., the White House has been the official residence and principal workplace of every U.S. President since John Adams. Designed by architect James Hoban, its simple yet powerful design has remained a symbol of the ideals that the Founding Fathers used to forge the country together. The medallion’s obverse shows the stately White House and the date it was established “October 13, 1792.” The reverse displays the inauguration of George Washington, the nation’s first President. 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.
