It looks like the Mint is releasing the Military service medals in bronze now
starting with the U.S. Air Force Bronze Medal for $20.00
Or have I not noticed this before now? - at any rate, I'm getting one of each to go with my silver medals.

I am not sure if I was aware of them or not, but it is good to know.

Thanks for the "Heads Up!"

I recalled reading about the future bronze medals last year when the Mint released the first silver medal of the series - the Air Force medal.

It took a minute to track down, but I found the brief mention of the bronze medals in a June 2021 Press Release. It's nice to see the Mint following through on its promise.

I might have to look into these as they are more affordable and will give my other bronze medals some company.

First the 2.5 ounce silver, then the one ounce silver, now a bronze (which you have to pay for a display case separately). I am running out of room.

Well, here is the Bronze version of the US Air Force Medal - It is the same size as the Ike dollar (but a tiny bit thicker) and weighs 0.909oz

I like it! I am going to add the bronze medals to the list. Maybe I will grab some while I still have free shipping this year. I do have one bronze medal (bought singly, I am not counting those included in the C&C sets) and it may need some friends.
