The GOLD version is technically a coin as it has a denominated value of 100$. The SILVER version is technically a medal as it is not denominated.

Quote: The SILVER version is technically a medal as it is not denominated. There are several differences between a coin and medal beside the lack of denomination on a medal. The medal will also lack "In God We Trust". I believe also "E Pluribus Unum" is required on a coin. Unsure if the reeded edge is required, I know the 2023 medal does not but the coin does, however a cent also does not and some of the modern dollar coins also do not. Also the orientation of the obverse is different between a coin and medal, I think that is by law, coin is oriented up/down, the medal is left/right.

Love the medal. The coin should be here tomorrow it sounds like. Love the added detail of the COA where the tree image is more like a photo than a drawing.

Very nice medals! Thanks for posting images! It's nice to see folks get excited about something other than a "coin."
