U.S. Coast Guard Bicentennial Bronze Medal – 3 Inch
Celebrate 200 years of Coast Guard service with this beautifully crafted 3-inch bronze medal—a meaningful gift for service members or a striking addition to any patriotic collection.
The obverse features a dramatic maritime rescue scene inspired by the painting To the Rescue by Anton Otto Fischer, a noted illustrator and Coast Guard Reserve officer. The artwork captures a 19th-century Coast Guard crew navigating treacherous seas to aid a distressed vessel—symbolizing the dedication and bravery of those who serve. Above the scene, a flowing banner reads “GUARDIANS OF THE SEA,” while “200 YEARS OF SERVICE” appears at the bottom, honoring the long-standing mission of the Coast Guard.
The reverse displays the official U.S. Coast Guard seal, which features the shield from the U.S. Coat of Arms, flanked by crossed anchors. The branch’s motto, “SEMPER PARATUS” (Latin for “Always Ready”), is prominently inscribed along with “UNITED STATES COAST GUARD 1790.”
Struck in bronze with a matte finish and a plain edge, this medal honors two centuries of faithful service in safeguarding America’s coastlines and maritime interests.
