The thread about silver content of medals issued by the Lincoln Mint got me to thinking about several medals I have which were issued by the US Mint. I googled and did some searching but no info. was available, any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

    The first silver medal series ever offered by the United States Mint, celebrating the 100th anniversary of the National Wildlife Refuge System.

    This is the only silver medal series that I'm familiar with that was recently issued by the Mint. Year 2003..weight was 26.73 grams.....90% silver. 4 different proof medals were issued that year.
