1945年，由Stack的Bowers宣布的Gold FDR

Stack的Bowers畫廊很高興宣布有史以來首次公開露面，並提供1945年富蘭克林·德拉諾·羅斯福（Franklin Delano Roosevelt）的第四枚獎牌。

Stack’s Bowers Galleries will offer a 1945 Franklin Delano Roosevelt Fourth Inaugural medal in gold. One of only 10 examples struck by the Philadelphia Mint in this precious metal, the medal is sure to be a highlight of the firm’s upcoming 2025 Summer Global Showcase Auction.

Stack的Bowers Galleries將提供1945年的富蘭克林·德拉諾·羅斯福（Franklin Delano Roosevelt）的第四次首屆金牌。費城造幣廠中僅有的10個例子之一是這種珍貴金屬，獎牌肯定是該公司即將推出的2025年夏季全球展示拍賣的亮點。

While 3,500 examples of the 1945 inaugural medal in bronze were struck to be sold to the public and are offered today on a regular basis, gold examples are another matter entirely. The 10 produced enjoyed closed distribution that included government officials and world leaders as follows:

雖然1945年銅牌的3500個例子被擊中出售給公眾，並定期提供，但黃金實例完全是另一件事。這10個生產的封閉式分銷，包括政府官員和世界領導人，如下所示：

* Three examples were presented to the Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library in Hyde Park, New York.

*將三個例子介紹給紐約海德公園的富蘭克林·羅斯福總統圖書館。

* Five examples were distributed by President Roosevelt himself at the Yalta Conference in February 1945 and later at Great Bitter Lake, Egypt, where he met with Ibn Saud in April 1945.

*羅斯福總統本人在1945年2月的雅爾塔會議上分發了五個例子，後來在埃及的大比特湖上分發了五個例子，在那裡他於1945年4月在那裡與伊本·沙特會面。

* One example was given to Ambassador Joseph E. Davies, the U.S. Ambassador to the Soviet Union.

*美國駐蘇聯大使約瑟夫·E·戴維斯大使舉行了一個例子。

* One example went to Mint Director Nellie Tayloe Ross, who is selling the medal via Stack’s Bowers Galleries.

*一個例子為薄荷導演內莉·泰洛·羅斯（Nellie Tayloe Ross），他正在通過Stack的Bowers Galleries出售獎牌。

The specimen being offered by Stack’s Bowers is from the estate of Mint Director Ross. The three examples presented to the Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library are still impounded in its museum collection. None of the other six gold examples has ever resurfaced, and it is unknown whether all the five medals handed out by President Roosevelt at Yalta and Great Bitter Lake, or the medal acquired by Ambassador Davies, still exist.

Stack的Bowers提供的標本來自MINT導演Ross的莊園。提交給富蘭克林·羅斯福總統圖書館的三個例子仍在其博物館藏品中扣押。其他六個金牌的例子都沒有浮出水面，尚不清楚羅斯福總統在Yalta和Great Bittle Lake和大使Davies獲得的獎牌中是否仍然存在。

“Each of the gold 1945 inaugural medals is a national treasure,” observed Jeff Ambio, Vice President of Numismatics for Stack’s Bowers Galleries. “Produced during the final chapter of World War II, they are exceedingly rare, saw limited distribution to government officials and world leaders, and are directly linked to the Yalta Conference that helped define the postwar world. Yet despite their significance, these gold medals are all but unknown both within the numismatic community and to the public. Our offering of Mint Director Nellie Tayloe Ross' specimen should bring to the story of these important medals the attention it deserves.”

Stack的Bowers Galleries的Numismatics副總裁Jeff Ambio觀察到：“ 1945年黃金的首屆獎牌都是國寶。” “在第二次世界大戰的最後一章中，它們非常罕見，對政府官員和世界領導人的分配有限，並與Yalta會議直接相關，該會議有助於定義戰後世界。儘管如此，這些金牌在數字社區內幾乎是未知的，都不是在公眾中。

This is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that deserves the utmost attention from bidders. “The new owner,” continued Ambio, “will be adding their name to the short list of government officials and influential world leaders who have owned a gold example of this medal, a list that includes Winston Churchill, Joseph Stalin, King Ibn Saud and, of course, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt himself.”

這確實是一個千載難逢的機會，值得投標人最大的關注。 Ambio繼續說：“新主人將在政府官員和有影響力的世界領導人的簡短名單中添加他們的名字，他們擁有這枚獎牌的金牌，其中包括Winston Churchill，Joseph Stalin，Joseph Stalin，Ibn Saud國王，當然還有富蘭克林·德拉諾·羅斯福總統本人。”
