From a purely logistical point of view, what is the legality of the president accepting the cash portion of the prize (or even the medal assuming it has significant cash value)?

Presumably, Exxon would not have been able to create a "You're a Great Guy! Award" and giving the medal with $10 million cash prize to Dick Cheney while he was vice president.
