(SINGAPORE MINT/CNN) - Singapore Mint, the government company responsible for making the currency of Singapore and commemorative coins, released a 'peace medallion' on its website on Tuesday.

That comes a week ahead of the Trump, Kim summit on June 12.

Singapore mint said the medallions commemorate the summit and "Singapore's role as a neutral host."

The coins are offered in gold, silver, and base-metal medallions.

The front side of the medallion features "an affirmative handshake between the two leaders" and the flags of both countries.

The back side features a dove and the national flowers of the U.S. and North Korea: the rose and magnolia sieboldii.
