Celebrate the grandeur of one of America's most iconic landmarks with this Mount Rushmore Bench Mark Medallion. Measuring 3 ¼ inches in diameter and cast in fine pewter, this medallion captures the majestic essence of Mount Rushmore National Memorial, located in the heart of South Dakota. It features a detailed etching of the mountain's likeness, along with its elevation of 5,725 feet, making it a distinctive memento for climbers, hikers, and adventurers alike.
The Mt. Rushmore souvenir medallion is not only a perfect gift for those who have ventured to this monumental site, but also a conversation starter due to its intriguing historical significance. Did you know that the carving of Mount Rushmore required over 450,000 tons of granite to be removed? Additionally, the entire project was completed in just under 15 years, a remarkable feat given the technology of the time. Another fascinating fact is that the monument was originally intended to include the figures of notable Western figures like Lewis and Clark, but budget constraints led to the selection of the four Presidents we see today.
Each Mount Rushmore Bench Mark Medallion comes with a felt backing to prevent scratches and is housed in a soft fleece pouch for added protection. Packaged in a clear vinyl box, it makes for a perfect keepsake or gift. This medallion beautifully commemorates the "Shrine of Democracy," a tribute to the first 150 years of America's growth and development, and is a testament to the enduring legacy of the nation's leaders carved into stone.
