Owner Comments:
Before becoming President, Theodore Roosevelt held various offices at the city, state, and federal levels including Assistant Secretary of the Navy and the Governor of New York. He was nominated as Vice President for the second term of William McKinley. Roosevelt became President upon McKinley’s assassination in 1901 and was later reelected for a second term. During his presidency, he personally commissioned sculptor Augustus Saint Gaudens to redesign the $10 and $20 gold coins, which marked teh start of the Renaissance era of American coinage. Roosevelt is widely regarded as one of the greatest U.S. Presidents with notable accomplishments including trust busing and conservationism and his receipt of the Nobel Peace Prize.
