The United States Mint produces national medals—selective awards authorized by Congress—to commemorate significant historical events of the Nation, or to honor those persons whose superior deeds and achievements have enriched our history, or the world.When legislation permits, bronze duplicates (90% copper, 10% zinc), or "List Medals", are struck for sale to the public. Some are produced as part of a continuing series, such as the Presidents of the United States, Secretaries of the Treasury, Directors of the Mint, and Historic Buildings of the United States.
The United States Mint now offers exclusive bronze medal replicas of recently presented Congressional gold medals. For a complete listing of medals available from the United States Mint, please call (800) USA-MINT (800-872-6468).
Please allow 7-10 days delivery for 3", 1 1/2" and 1 5/16" standard size medals for items in stock. All other non-standard sized medals, and back order items, will require 6-8 weeks for delivery.
