This silver medal honors Benjamin Harrison, the 23rd President of the United States, who served from 1889 to 1893. He secured the Republican nomination in 1888 on the eighth ballot and became known for running a "front porch" campaign—engaging with voters from his home in Indiana rather than traveling the country.
Despite his modest height of 5 feet 6 inches, political opponents dubbed him "Little Ben." Supporters, however, proudly noted he was more than capable of filling the shoes—and the legacy—of his grandfather, William Henry Harrison, the ninth U.S. President.
The obverse of the medal features a right-facing portrait of President Harrison, with his name “BENJAMIN HARRISON” inscribed along the edge.
On the reverse, a laurel wreath surrounds the inscription “INAUGURATED PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES MARCH 4 1889”—commemorating the beginning of his presidential term.
Both the obverse and reverse designs were created by Charles E. Barber, Chief Engraver of the U.S. Mint at the time.
