  • Uniquely designed collectable keepsake highlighting and honoring the accomplishments of Dr. Mary Edwards Walker
  • Makes the perfect gift for students, teachers, mentors, or someone who inspires you
  • Designed and hand-crafted completely in the U.S.A.

Depictions of the Rod of Asclepius and a surgical kit from the Civil War celebrate Dr. Walker’s accomplishments as a physician and battlefield surgeon. To date, Walker is the only woman to receive the Medal of Honor, which is also featured as an icon. The clothing icon represents her commitment to women’s dress reform, as she felt practical clothing was important for women’s physical and emotional health. The stars and stitching along the border are a nod to Civil War uniforms, while the red, white, and blue motif acknowledges Walker’s patriotism.

The coin’s reverse (tails) design depicts Walker holding her pocket surgical kit, with the Medal of Honor on her uniform and surgeon’s pin at her collar. After receiving the award, she continued to wear the Medal of Honor for the rest of her life. The left side of the coin showcases the details of the Medal of Honor. Inscriptions are “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “E PLURIBUS UNUM,” “25 CENTS,” “DR. MARY EDWARDS WALKER,” and “MEDAL OF HONOR 1865.”
