The official and scarce inaugural medal from the fourth term inauguration of Franklin D. Roosevelt. 1945. he designer was Jo Davidson and the medal was minted by the United States Mint. This is the official medal and very elusive for collectors. the medal was encased in a lucite display frame and titled Franklin Delano Roosevelt Fourth Inauguration 1945. As such the medal is uncirculated, however it is evenly speckled on the front and back. A very nice example with no visible dents, dings or bruises.
