The obverse bears a striking portrait of our newly elected President, Barrack Obama, with his name inscribed above. The reverse bears the Official Inaugural Seal and an ornate design below which reads: 44TH PRESIDENT/ OF THE/ UNITED STATES OF AMERICA/ INAUGURATED JAN. 20, 2009. Below the seal is a split wreath which combines laurel and oak leaves. According to the artist, Thomas D. Rogers: “The laurel leaves symbolize victory; the oak leaves symbolize wisdom and strength; they are tied together below the scroll cartouche with a ribbon that symbolizes unity.” One interesting fact worth noting is that this is the first time that the inaugural seal has actually been featured on the official inaugural medal.
