I gotta think that there's still a limit close to 10,000. Those blanks are not standard, and I can't imagine the USM has a supply of blanks well over 10,000. I'm getting mine ordered on Day 1.

Quote: I gotta think that there's still a limit close to 10,000. I agree, and think there is a good chance that page will be updated to indicate 10K. I don't recall, did the previous 2.5 oz military medals have HHL of 1?

I'm pretty sure they did. All of them sold out, but some took a few days. This will sell out too.
Like Dearborn, I intend to get one of the big boy size and also one of each of the 1oz once they start releasing.

I can't wait. So far I have the previous released 2.5's - can't afford to lose out now.

Enrollment is open for the August 16th one ounce US Air Force medal. Does not seem to have a quantity limit.

Ok that is done - But I wonder if it will include the other branches of 1oz medals or just the Air Force?

I went ahead and the next 1oz Coast Guard does not have the enrollment.. I may have to call the mint and ask them...

That's a good question. It does call the enrollment "Armed Forces" and says this coin is "Next in Program". I think you are correct in suspecting that it may be for all branches.

Well, I sure hope so, I will still attempt to find out either by a phone call or that on-line chat thing they have.

Well last night, I'm certain it said "Air Force" Enrollment - now it says "Armed Forces" Enrollment. The question remains here is that did the mint change it, or did I see it all wrong? (I'm sticking with "The mint fixed it" theory.)

The United States Navy Medal released earlier this year did have a household limit of one, and I brought one. They were on sale for two or three days before selling out. I did not tray to buy the two medals issued in 2021, so I do not know about them other than the mintage cap was and remains 10,000 for all issues of the 2.5 ounce variety.
I have also enrolled in the one ounce Armed Forces Medal program which will cover all six issues starting in 2022 and continuing in 2023 and 2024.
