This came in a follow up email from the mint regarding the coin forum held last year:

"As we kick off 2017, five key projects are underway:



1. Establish a pre-order system:

The pre-order system will be implemented for the 2018 World War I American Veterans Centennial commemorative coin program, allowing customers a 30-day pre-order window.

- Currently, the 2018 production schedule is being developed, which will determine on sale dates for our products.

2. Develop fractional Buffalo coins:

- The Mint is considering minting and issuing fractional Buffalo 24K Gold Proof coins in 2017 in 1/2 oz., 1/4 oz., and 1/10 oz. weights.

3. Implement bulk packaging:

- Already in development prior to the Numismatic Forum, dealers will have the option to order the 2017 American Eagle Silver Proof in bulk packaging.

4. Increase portfolio of high relief silver medals with date and Mint mark:

- A four-medal set based on the designs of the 2017 American Liberty Gold Coin is scheduled to be launched mid-October 2017.

5. Commitment to outreach - establish next year's Numismatic Forum:

- The next forum is being planned for Fall 2017 in Washington, D.C. - our team will communicate details as they are finalized.
Rest in Peace

The Real "Cool" Brad posted the same over on US Mint News Blog (maybe you 'mellamobradley46').

Is this an invite only email list as part of the coin forum? Is there a way others can get plugged into these updates, etc?

I am very curious if they will be selling the silver medal as singles or if the only way to obtain one is via this four-medal set.

Thanks!

They have to do something about the prices or I won't buy them except on secondary markets if I can. The fractional Buffalo nickels would be nice if they don't go wild with the prices.

I am skeptical about a pre-order system. I would need to read more about it before offering an opinion.
