The Space Force medals will be sky high and will also be delivered by BALOONS. Probably faster than SNAIL MAIL too.

In reply to Caliskier. Just buy silver for the sake of silver, for goodness sake!

In reply to Chris Terp. Major D, I think all coin collectors have at least some speculator in them.

In reply to Caliskier. For a silver O’ree version coin, however look no further! I p/u 3 from Gatewest and gave one to a good friend who had season hockey tickets directly in front of Mr O’ree! My buddy had taken me to numerous games and on a few occasions Mr O’ree was in attendance! Definitely a “Legend”!

In reply to Caliskier. Thanks Cali for the information and the link. I now see that all the other silver product price increases made by the Mint today were only just revealed today (Feb. 8) in the Federal Register.

Hey Rich; I’m not saying you aren’t familiar with the Federal Register; however in my case, at times while trying to search I have limited results? Anyhow, take another peak and this is the link I have bookmarked for my daily, FR check.

Re:todays CCAC meeting announcement, I’m excited to see the designs for the Willie O’ree “Gold Medal”! I’d love to see them do a rendition in Silver; however I think it’s legislation will stipulate, “Gold Medal” to the Smithsonian, Silver to the recipient and or ancestors, bronze for sale.

Sure enough the prices for all US Mint Silver coins and medals were increased today with the exception of the Morgan and Peace Dollar 2023 Two-Coin Reverse Proof Set Subscription, which is still $175. Yesterday’s Federal Register notice for the Mint price increases only pertained to the Silver Medals. I have not seen any notice or announcement from the Federal Register (or elsewhere) for the price increases for the American Silver Eagle Proof and Uncirculated (Burnished) coins, the Morgan and Peace Silver Dollar Proof and Uncirculated coins, or the other silver products.

In reply to Caliskier. Caliskier - The notice appeared in The Federal Register, which is pretty close to what I would call an official publication, so for better or worse we have been handed the notice. The Federal Register is a daily gazette containing Presidential documents and new and amended Federal regulations. The Office publishes the complete set of Federal rules in the Code of Federal Regulations.

Guess we’ll get a new excuse for price increases – inflation? 🙁

Inflation Reduction Act (Deflation Act) hasn’t helped w/Gubmint pricings?

I’ve purchased the Navy 2.5oz medal and the 1oz Coast Guard and Air Force ones. Now all the gifts I’ve chosen to purchase from Mint have gone up in prices especially the bronze medals which skyrocketed in prices to where I don’t purchase anymore.

Sorry to say that ALL prices have been adjusted up are as of this writing., the notice has technically not been published, so I’m not sure how the US Mint is getting away with changing prices prior to the “Public” being notified through official publication?
