Gigantic George Washington Commemorative Coin

When the fire of revolution ignited in the colonies, George Washington was chosen as Commander-in-Chief of the colonial forces during the American Revolution. History tells of his strength and leadership as beleaguered colonial troops battled against the mighty British armies. Where others might have given up, Washington fought on. After accepting the British surrender that ended the Revolutionary War, Washington thought he had done enough. He desperately wanted to go home and live a quiet life, but Americans would accept no one else to lead them.

Washington was unanimously votedto be the first President of the United States of America. Called "The Father of Our Country," he led the nation with honor, pride, and dignity. George Washington's profound achievements and devoted service laid the very foundation of this powerful nation.

Available exclusively from American Mint, this incredible 70 mm coin is layered in stunning 24k gold and features an exquisitely detailed portrait of our nation's first President.
