    They're not going to strike a silver medal to commemorate the occasion?

    The article is more about the Mason's than the Mint.

    In the past it seems they never pass up an opportunity to fire up "Ol' #1" knock out a few tokens "for the cause" and give them the CC mint mark.

    The story doesn't mention it, but I bet if you look into the event - they probably will.

    True I Have a pony express medal struck on #1 press CC Nv. It's also numbered, they only struck twice a month when they had received paid orders. Nice medal

    Fun stuff. The anniversary is based on the day the first cornerstone was laid. In 1870 they started minting Morgans.
