Did some light searching, and saw where someone claimed to have a silver version. Studied the coin more closely, and saw where the prospector was about to step on a P. Restarted the search with Philadelphia Mint, and found references in PCGS and NGC. There are 3 versions -- Bronze, Silver, and Platinum. I'm assuming this is silver. Report this Post to the Staff

commems CCF Master Historian of USA Commemoratives United States 12255 Posts	Posted 05/01/2021 5:11 pm Nice! Yes, at ~20 grams, your example is one of the silver medals. I enjoy collecting these US Mint medals. Here's my three-piece set of the 1967 Alaska Centennial medals - it's set 92 of 100 and includes the platinum version; there were 100 platinum medals struck.
