My medals arrived today and all are mark-free and of very high technical quality - the Mint did a great job with these.
From a visual aesthetics standpoint, I'm very impressed. The designs look great and, IMO, work better on the larger planchet size of the silver medal vs. on last year's smaller high-relief gold coin. The device-vs-field contrast of the proof strike also helps enhance the visual appeal.
I think those that ordered are going to be very pleased that they did!
(I can't post images at the moment, but will try to do so later tonight if others don't post.)

Got mine today. Beautiful medals but there is an absurd amount of lint/dust inside the airtites. Is that typical? I can't tell what is dust and what is actual damage to the coins. I'm afraid I may cause more harm than good if I try to open the airtite to remove the dust. My West Point medal has a small hit over the wings as well. I don't know that either of mine would grade a 70 but I am thankful I got my order.
