According to the 2025 USM Product Schedule, there will be an American Liberty I ounce proof silver medal in Summer 2025. Something for the medal collectors to look forward to.
I might be in on that medal and the Teddy Roosevelt Presidential Silver Medal. . .

Quote: " I might be in on that medal and the Teddy Roosevelt Presidential Silver Medal. . ." The Presidential Silver Medal Series is an Awesome Reflection of Our American History. 1-Ounce @ a Time.....  The Teddy Roosevelt Medal Well be a Most Welcome to the collection ....  Every time I visit the Town of Oyster Bay , In Nassau County, I get a chance to see the Memorial Outside the Syosset/ Oyster Bay boundary of Col.Teddy Roosevelt on His horse in Full fighting 1898 regalia .... Very Large in stature . |

I believe the full ounce gold American Liberty coins are released in odd years, so there is one scheduled for this summer (usually August I think).

As for the Presidential Silver Medal Series, as they're typically profiles -- which I find kind of boring, as in the example of TJ below -- I'll wait to see the TR medal before I decide to add it to my collection.  I'm a TR fan and have a few items in my collection that portray him quite well:    The middle one, from the HOF for Great Americans series, is my favorite TR depiction. Hard to find in either bronze or silver. " Even a clock that's stopped is right twice a day. "

Capt , Love Your Eye candy of TR....... Impressive 1960's examples....  Thanks for Sharing... I wanted to mention after reading Your Last post about the Design(s) changes that I have seen in the Presidential Silver Medal Series. Since the First medal of George Washington I wish they Included in writing on these medals the order or Number in which the Presidents served, Maybe the years they served, etc. I have seen , as You too probably know, the Reverse information has evolved into the Years they served, How many terms etc. I Know You too Will be Drooling Once you receive the medal of Our 26th President, Teddy Roosevelt...... |

What about the coin?
UK 2 Pounds 2024: Britannia and Liberty I bought The Royal Mint version as well: Coin vs medal Cost was good, even with shipping Charles is on it, which is still a new thing, and now they say his health isn't that good, so how long will he reign? Much more limited than the USM version. I know at first they seemed to want the Flowing Hair dollar as the Liberty Coin. That CCAC board said no, the Liberty coins/medals designs are supposed to come through the artistic infusion program, not reusing classic designs. So yes I thought the Liberty-Britannia program was chosen instead? But the Liberty Coin program does seem to work oddly. The things that throws me is I thought there was going to be a new Classic Coin program. Now it looks like a one-off, and for what? 230 years? Since when is 230 some significant anniversary year? |

The Newer direction of the Mint has the Artistic Infusion program Highlighted in Every move they make. No more Mint director's pushing for the design they desired, Making the final decisions......  We have an organization, CCAC that recommends What We Might like....  Quote: " I thought there was going to be a new Classic Coin program. " I did Too. I suppose the idea was Very popular among collectors... Quote: " Now it looks like a one-off, and for what? 230 years? Since when is 230 some significant anniversary year? " It's Not, To us.  I have a feeling Certain Ole School designs Will return to the Mint's Products Schedules, As they see fit. I am Sure the Collector demand Will Accept Certain old coinage designs from Days Gone Bye. |

The silver medal profile matches the one of the Presidential dollar, also included in that set as a proof. The two medals are business strikes.
