hey I keep trying to take a good pic with my digital camera but the pics dont end up good, any better ideas? On the front of the coin is george w. bush and on the back is two eagles with feet touching in the middle. Around the rim of the first side says george w. bush and 42st american president. Around the rim of the eagle side it says double eagle commermative.Thanks for the help guys.

I had a lady bring a few of these into the shop a few days ago. They have several designs. I couldn't find them in my books either and they aren't on the sheet so I turned her away. I checked ebay later and saw some of them selling for around 12.00. I saw the same one twice, once described as 90 percent silver and the other touted as nickel clad. You need to find out who minted it and then it will be easy.

The reason that you can't find pricing is because its not a coin ,,it is a presidential token /medallion and could have been made by any number of private mints ,,the US mint also strikes Presidential Medals ,,which can't be viewed right now their catalog is down for an indefinite time .

If you look around on ebay you can maybe find the other presidents also .
