On June 12, 2018, US President Donald Trump and North Korean Chairman Kim Jong-un made history when they sat down together in Singapore. The meeting came as the country's neared seventy years of officially being at war with each other. To mark the occasion, the Singapore Mint issued gold, silver, and nickel-plated zinc medals. This silver medal gives collectors who are interested in history and those who dream of a day when world peace could be possible the chance to share in the milestone event. This medal was struck at the Singapore Mint from one ounce of .999 fine silver. It is part of a mintage of just 8,000 pieces.
Powerful Handshake Design
The obverse features the flags of the two leaders' countries. The colorized American and North Korean flags are rendered in vivid color, standing vertically side by side. The names of the countries, "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" and "DEMOCRATIC PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF KOREA," are inscribed along the rim.
On the reverse, two hands shake against a backdrop of the agreement that the two leaders signed. The signatures of both leaders are readily visible on the document. The medal's weight and purity, "1 OZ 999 FINE SILVER," are inscribed just above the agreement, while the rim frame bears inscriptions that note the event, "SINGAPORE SUMMIT," and its date, "12 JUNE 2018."
