Powerful Handshake Design
The obverse of this medal features the flags of the two nations whose leaders partook in the summit side by side vertically. The flags are colorized, which would make this coin stand out in most gold collections. The names of the two countries, "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" and "DEMOCRATIC PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF KOREA," are inscribed along the rim.
On the reverse, two hands shake above the agreement that was signed by the two leaders. The agreement features the signatures of US President Donald Trump and North Korea's Chairman Kim Jong Un. The weight and purity of the coin, "1/2 OZ 999.9 FINE GOLD," are inscribed above the agreement, and "THE SINGAPORE MINT" is inscribed below it. The rim bears the date of the summit, "12 JUNE 2018" and its name, "SINGAPORE SUMMIT."
