Rosa Parks – 1.5" Bronze Medal
This 1.5-inch bronze medal is a replica of the Congressional Gold Medal awarded to Rosa Parks in honor of her pivotal role in the American civil rights movement. Struck by the U.S. Mint in Philadelphia, the medal commemorates a woman whose quiet courage helped ignite a nationwide movement for equality and justice.
The Legacy:
Widely known as the “First Lady of Civil Rights” and the “Mother of the Modern-Day Civil Rights Movement,” Rosa Parks changed history on December 1, 1955, when she refused to give up her seat to a white passenger on a Montgomery, Alabama bus. Her arrest inspired the Montgomery Bus Boycott and became a defining moment in the movement for racial equality.
Obverse Design:
Features a portrait of Rosa Parks, with inscriptions:
“ROSA PARKS” along the top
“MOTHER OF THE MODERN DAY CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT” along the bottom and sides
Reverse Design:
Highlights her enduring legacy of grace and resilience, with inscriptions:
“QUIET STRENGTH” at the top
Framed by oak leaves on either side
“PRIDE, DIGNITY, COURAGE” and “BY ACT OF CONGRESS 1999” at the bottom
Whether for personal reflection or as a meaningful gift, the Rosa Parks Bronze Medal is a timeless keepsake celebrating one of the most iconic figures in American history.
