Limited edition sterling silver commemorative plate issued by the Bicentennial Council of the Thirteen Original States and produced by the Franklin Mint. The plate features a gold-electroplated central relief depicting Thomas Jefferson drafting the Declaration of Independence, encircled by the inscription “We hold these truths to be self-evident.” Crafted in solid sterling silver with 24k gold inlay, weighing approximately 230 grams or approximately 7 1/2 troy ounces, and presented in its original book-form case titled Jefferson Drafting the Declaration of Independence. From 1973.
The outer presentation case shows noticeable wear and deterioration, while the interior lining and the plate itself remain in fine condition, with crisp detail and strong visual appeal. A handsome Bicentennial-era tribute to Jefferson’s foundational role in American history.
