<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnmilton, post: 26050387, member: 101855&quot;][USER=19765]@fretboard[/USER], here are the 1897 and 1901 McKinley inaugural medals. In 1897, and for the two previous inaugurals, the official medal was mounted on a ribbon. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1656484[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1656488[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1656489[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>The 1901 inagural medal was the first that was not mounted on a ribbon. This piece is fairly common. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1656490[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1656491[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Here is the same medal in silver. This piece has a mintage of only 55 pieces. These pieces were given to those who put in a major effort toward the inauguration. Many of the these pieces are messed up because they went to noncollectors who did not store them properly. The condition on this one prompted me to buy it. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1656492[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1656493[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
