March 4, 1789 Memorable Era, Geo Washington Button

Item Details

Description

This is the second of these Memorable Era buttons in this collection. This one appears to be steel and is imprinted with March The Fourth 1789 Memorable Era with the Liberty Eagle in the center. These buttons were created to commemorate President Washington's inauguration scheduled for March, but due to some logistical issues, the actual inauguration was held on April 30 of that year. Button has a nice patina with the inscription nice and legible, but no longer retains the shank. Approx measures 1 3/8" across.
