In the OP, reference is made to non-precious clad medals. Haven't seen anything on the USM Product Schedule that fits that description. . .
I saw this in the email I got from the Mint yesterday about the release of the Superman coin and medals:
Quote:
In early 2026, the Mint will offer a set of three non-precious (clad) medals, one for each of the first three characters, Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman. This set will be a standard offering of the program, to be available after the launch of the individual products for the third character each year.
Sounds like you won't be able to purchase the clad medals individually, only as part of a set. That's ridiculous. The whole point of the clad medals was to have an "affordable" option for young and/or novice collectors. Now you're forcing them to buy a presumably expensive three-medal set rather than cheaper individual options. There's no way the set will be less than $100, when the Mint is selling the individual 2025 commemorative half dollars for $60 a piece.
When did Mint products become the domain of the wealthy? I miss the days of $20 uncirculated sets or coin and currency sets.
