American Medals

The obverse side of the US silver medal in the 2020 Proof American 400^th Anniversary of the Mayflower Voyage Set features a pilgrim family. Having newly come ashore, the family is bracing against the cold, windy weather of a northeast winter. The design hints at the upcoming harsh weather and tough times awaiting the pilgrims. Inscriptions on this face read A Civil Body Politick and Mayflower Compact. On the reverse is a depiction of Wampanoag indigenous figures tending to their crops. The inscriptions on this side include Sustainers of Life and People of the Dawn.

British Coins

On the obverse of the British silver coins in these 2020 Proof 400^th Anniversary of the Mayflower Voyage Sets, you will find a right-profile bust of Queen Elizabeth II. The fifth-generation effigy of the monarch, this side of the coin includes inscriptions of Elizabeth II, 2 Pounds, and D.G. Reg. F.D. The reverse face of the coins includes a design of the Mayflower with commemorative dates of 1620 and 2020 inscribed, along with Mayflower.

History

Signed aboard the Mayflower as it was anchored off the northern tip of Cape Cod on November 21, 1620, the Mayflower Compact was the first governing document used to establish the Plymouth Colony. This document is viewed by some as one of the first and most significant democratic documents in the world as the passengers established a system of law and order that required its signatories to respect and abide by the law.
