All updates by medals chairman Tony K., as appearing in the club's newsletter.

January 2024 update: Over half the medals have been sold. I am trying to check the PO Box weekly and stay on top of mailing out the orders and depositing the checks. There was an initial delay for both the checks getting deposited and the medals going out. But we have gotten caught up and are currently staying on top of processing the orders.

October-December 2023 update: The board settled on the prices for the medals. There needed to be a minor increase as the cost of each medal went up, and we got a new reverse die. The medals have arrived!! Club members see order form in the newsletter.

August-September 2023 update: Tony presented the design for the club’s 2024 medal, and sent the deposit check for the silver along with the medal artwork to the mint, all in August. There was talk about the current reverse getting worn out and not producing quality impressions. It was decided to get a new reverse die made. The new reverse will use the club logo approved in 2014. Most folks only see it on the club’s table cloth at the coin show. Looking forward to seeing how it will look as our reverse.

Order forms will be out soon. Just need to verify our cost. The silver medals will be 1 ounce again this year as the foundry isn’t doing 1.5 ounces because of silver demands. I haven’t given up on the 3-piece holders, just haven’t gotten a supplier for them yet. I’m still looking, and modified the order form to give the option to be notified when they become available. The dies for the medals should be done in September as I approved the plasters last month.

June-July 2023 update: Tony presented a new preliminary design for the 2024 medal. It is a Boeing 367-80. Tony is in the process of getting it approved by Boeing. As of July, the new medal has been approved by Boeing.

May 2023 update: Two different versions of the draft of the 2024 medal using the Boeing 367-80 “Dash 80” design were shown. Artwork close to the final design was shown and will be presented to Boeing for approval after final clean up.

March 2023 update: There was much discussion regarding ideas for the next medal design. Here are a few of the suggestions: B-17; 367-80 (70 years); 747-800 Freighter; 737-Next Generation; Starliner Capsule; F-22. Please feel free to submit your suggestions to Tony K.
