Message:: [QUOTE="Cascade, post: 2500872, member: 75984"]From another forum... The communications coming from the Mint’s Corporate Communications office and its spokesman, Michael White, appear to be consistent in reporting that the 12,500 units for each silver Liberty medal are, in fact, mintage limits rather than product limits (as listed on the Mint’s web site). From the Mint’s own press release of August 16, 2016: “The one-ounce silver medals are struck at the United States Mint at West Point (product code UH9) and the United States Mint at San Francisco (product code UH10) with a mintage limit of 12,500 per medal.(Emphasis added here and below.)Each medal is encapsulated and placed in an elegant blue velvet presentation case with a certificate of authenticity.” This has been further corroborated by more recent follow-up communications from Michael White. The web site Coin Update is reporting that “Michael White of the Mint’s Office of Corporate Communications has confirmed in an email that each medal has been given amintage limit of 12,500 units.” The Mint News Blog site reports on a communication it received from White that stated “the one-ounce silver medals are struck at both West Point and San Francisco with amintage limit of 12,500 per medal, and a household limit of 2.”[/QUOTE]
