<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Blissskr, post: 2172251, member: 34882&quot;]It&#039;s mostly because of how long it takes congress to get anything accomplished. Silver versions would need new legislation to be proposed, then voted on, etc. They could mint them as silver medals I believe without legislation. Usually commemorative coin legislation gets proposed a few years before the coins are actually struck. For instance anyone who would like to see some type of Ike 50 year anniversary set in 2021 should be talking to their house and senate representatives around now trying to convince them to get behind the idea.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.coinnews.net/2015/02/06/us-mint-2016-24k-gold-coins-to-celebrate-1916-designs/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.coinnews.net/2015/02/06/us-mint-2016-24k-gold-coins-to-celebrate-1916-designs/" rel="nofollow">http://www.coinnews.net/2015/02/06/us-mint-2016-24k-gold-coins-to-celebrate-1916-designs/</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
