​Step back into a landmark moment in American history with this officially commissioned commemorative plate, honoring the 50th American Presidential Inauguration.

​This elegant piece marks the second inauguration of President Ronald Reagan, held in the historic Capitol Rotunda on January 21, 1985. Because of the record-breaking freezing temperatures in D.C. that day, the ceremony was moved indoors, making this specific "Rotunda" edition a unique tribute to a rare chapter in inaugural lore.

Why This Piece?
