Can the mint strike more 230th anniversary coins and medals dated 2024?

The mint held back on striking 25,000 silver medals and 7,500 gold coins in this product, so the question is can they still strike those remaining from 2024 as part of another product later? I wrote up a plan on how they could add more later dates to this series. I even threw in a 150th anniversary trade dollar as i think that would sell equally well.
230th Anniversary Coin Series
2024 Flowing Hair Design
2025 Flowing Hair Design
2025 Draped Bust Design
2026 Draped Bust Design Small Letters
2027 Draped Bust Design 9 Stars Left
2028 Draped Bust Design 13 Stars
2028 Draped Bust Design 15 Stars
2028 Heraldic Eagle Reverse 13 Stars
2029 Heraldic Eagle Reverse 15 Stars
2030 Heraldic Eagle Reverse 12 Arrows
2031 Heraldic Eagle Reverse Normal
2032 Heraldic Eagle Reverse Wide Date
2033 Heraldic Eagle Reverse Large 3
2034 Heraldic Eagle Reverse 2nd Reverse
150th Anniversary Trade Dollar
2025 Trade Dollar in Gold
2026 Trade Dollar in Gold
2027 Trade Dollar in Gold
So what product could the 2024 issues be added to next year? It seems apparent that nothing will come out this year with both of them added to it.

The mint already has plans for Draped Bust 2026 as well as UHR 2.0 and the 2016 Centennial set rehashed.
You’re assuming they haven’t already struck them. I think it’s possible another product comes out with one or both of them.
The mint is only bound by their published limits. So yes, they can do whatever they want up to the limits they have published. Will they? Anyone's guess is as good as mine, but it's pretty late in the year to be announcing new 2024 products.
The medal can be struck at any time. The coins must be struck by the end of the year. We do not, however, know whether they have already been struck or not.
