Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Silver Medal Available on July 14

WASHINGTON, D.C., July 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Silver Medal will be available for purchase directly from the United States Mint (Mint) on July 14 at noon ET.  Roosevelt was the Nation’s 26th President, serving from September 14, 1901, until March 4, 1909.  Roosevelt took office following the assassination of President William McKinley, under whom he had served as Vice President.  He is best known for preserving America’s natural resources and vastly expanding the national parks system.

Presidential Silver Medals are 99.9 percent fine silver, with each medal measuring 1.598 inches in diameter.

This medal was produced under the authority of 31 U.S.C. § 5111(a)(2), which authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury (Secretary) to “prepare national medal dies and strike national and other medals if it does not interfere with regular minting operations but may not prepare private medal dies.”

The Department of the Treasury has a long-standing tradition of honoring each President of the United States contemporaneously with an official bronze medal issued by the Secretary and struck by the Mint.  In 2018, the Mint began replicating the bronze presidential medal program in 99.9% fine silver.

The obverse (heads) design was created by Charles E. Barber, the 6th Chief Engraver of the Mint.  The obverse depicts a bust of the President with the inscription “THEODORE ROOSEVELT.”

The reverse (tails) design was created by George T. Morgan and depicts Columbia with her right hand resting upon a column bearing a cinerary urn and devices symbolizing the authority of the United States with the U.S. Capitol in the background.  Inscriptions are “INAUGURATED PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES SEP. 24, 1901” and “SECOND TERM MARCH 4, 1905.”

Each medal is encapsulated and comes with a certificate of authenticity.

The Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Silver Medal is priced at $90.  Orders will be accepted at https://www.usmint.gov/theodore-roosevelt-presidential-silver-medal-S826.html (product code S826).
