BECC Medals |
Important Note: This is not a public sale. BECC medals are normally sold to eligible Boeing persons by private sale. Please read "BECC Medals Information" below. The Boeing Employees' Coin Club has issued distinctive medals featuring a Boeing product or products most years since the 50th anniversary of The Boeing Company in 1966. These medals are issued in silver, pewter, and bronze (and beginning in 2012, copper), with a proof-like (mirror-like) finish, and are widely collected by BECC members, Boeing employees and retirees, and other persons interested in aviation and coin club memorabilia. Since the BECC is a non-profit organization, the medal prices are reasonable, although higher in recent years due to higher silver prices and higher production expenses. Note: The 2012 copper medals did not have a proof-like finish, however all other medals including the 2013 to date medals do have this popular feature that most collectors desire. Special "antique" finish medals have been made for club awards, but are not available as part of the normal sales process. More information about recent special-issue medals is available in the Table of BECC medals (designs and mintages), and some information was also included in the PNNA's first quarter editions of The Nor'wester, which was available at the annual BECC coin shows in 2018-2020. |

2026-2027 medals |
All updates by medals chairman Tony K., as appearing in the club's newsletter. We considered medal subjects and designs such as the X-37B, ALCM, MQ- 25, 747 Space Shuttle Carrier Aircraft and the X8FB-1 (Model 400) Prototype. 2026 will be our 50th year of medals, and we were looking to do something special to celebrate. Design contenders were to be presented and voted on at the June 2025 meeting. June/July (2025) update: At the June 2025 meeting, club members voted the P-51 & B-17 combination as the 2026 medal design, and the 747 Space Shuttle Carrier Aircraft as the 2027 medal design. August (2025) update: Did you know that the 2026 medal design is the 50th year design for BECC medals? That’s quiet a few medals. As the medals chair person for over ten years I have had my share of successful designs and some that could have performed better. Having said that, I like the design we have decided on for 2026. The design has been presented to Boeing and they have it in review with their graphics department. I will follow up with them shortly to see how the review is going. |
2025 medals feature F/A-18F Super Hornet |
All updates by medals chairman Tony K., as appearing in the club's newsletter.
December update: Medals have arrived and orders are being fulfilled. The club also purchased copper medals this year. The medals can be ordered using the order form in the newsetter. November update: The medals have arrived and we showcased one of the silvers at the October club meeting. They look really nice! I’ve received orders already and working to get those out in the mail and prepped the ones I need to take to the November club meeting. I will have extras so you can fill out an order form then and pick up onsite. Three piece holders are still not available, but I haven’t given up on trying to get them. In the next couple of weeks my goal is to email and mail out order forms to the regular customers I haven’t received orders from. Look for the order form in the newsletter. The annual previous/last year's medals inventory sale will take place at the November meeting. September update: Good News! The medal design has been approved by Boeing Intellectual Property. It took several interations with them to get it approved. We are minting 200 one ounce siver medals and 100 pewter and 100 bronze medals. Pricing information will be found in our order sheet when it is finalized for members to purchase medals. July-August (2024) update: I submitted the medal design for approval. I am working with a lot of new people at Boeing Licensing and Trademark and hopefully the medal design will be approved soon. This is taking longer than I had expected. The design work for the 2025 medal started in February (2024), with "2025 medal designs and ideas" as the primary February club meeting topic. The goal is to bring the medal back into its normal rhythm of mid-summer sales and delivery and not late fall which has been the case with the silver demand issues the past two years. Tony presented possible medal designs. At the March meeting, the membership voted the choices of 12 down to three which are: Super Hornet, B-17 Flying Fortress; and Apache. Ultimately the F/A-18F Super Hornet was selected. |
