Awesome piece Mike! How come I can't find it on the club website? >>
On the home page of our club website, http://www.glencoin.com/, we have a link to our February 2014 Newsletter which has the information on our 2014 medals. Our April 2014 Newsletter has additional information as well as photos of each medal and final mintage stats.
The medal was initially only available to club members, but since many on the CU forum support our club each year when I sell our gold & silver coin raffle tickets on the BST, we decided to invite CU members to pre-order medals too, but at a slightly higher price to cover shipping and to help recover the costs of the dies. The club members ultimately decided to have them struck in gold, but only to club members who pre-paid the significant cost.
Very happy with how they came out and I can't wait until our next meeting on Friday when I get to hand them out to our club members
The National Battlefield Coin Show™ will be producing a different medal each year for the show. The medals will be limited in production to 250 pieces. This year's medal is:
We have been kicking around the idea of 3 different medals each year with mintmarks of P, D & S. The P for Public, the D for Dealers and the S for Show attendees.
Spring National Battlefield Coin Show is April 3-5, 2025 at the Eisenhower Hotel Ballroom, Gettysburg, PA. WWW.AmericasCoinShows.com
rec.collecting.coins (RCC) was identified as an internet "coin club" and as such had a series of medals/tokens struck. I don't have mine any longer but seems there was a "flame" and an "ember". Someone with a better memory than me would have to come up with the names and who made them but they were very high quality and not overly expensive.

Thanks for the note. Here's a direct link to the February 2014 Newsletter for those interested. Very nice letter with lots of graphics and good information. Seems like a cool club!
How much were the cost of the dies if you don't mind sharing? Also, do you know who made the dies?
It's cool that more and more clubs are using the Moonlight Mint to make their medals as they are much nicer than most coin club medals.

Very cool Michael! I really like the high relief obverse on that one. Mint marks would be cool and since this is related to the Civil War, it might be interesting to have O and C mint marks as well

Most private mints contract out the design/sculpting/engraving, and/or have a dedicated employee just for that. This is an area where they often have the most difficulty.
I'm pretty much a one-man operation. Prior to 2007, I would cut an 8-inch diameter hard acrylic 3-D model (galvano) which I would send to someone with a reduction lathe to make mechanical transfer dies. For all of my issues starting with 2007 onward, I have been doing all my own engraving (digital to die directly).
And I do my own design and sculpting, except when a medal uses an existing coin or medal design. Even then, I still do the engraving myself, as well as the die heat-treating (hardening) and die polishing.
The only time I ever use dies that were engraved by someone else is when someone wants pieces struck from vintage dies.
My progression in this business has been the opposite order of most other mints. I started doing design, then added sculpting, and then engraving in 2006. In 2008 I started doing all my own striking as well on my restored Denver Mint surplus coin press.
<< <i>Nice medal from the So-Called Dollar Fellowship. Would this qualify as an unlisted SCD since it's commemorating an event?

The officially-proclaimed "So-Called-Dollars" have to meet certain criteria, which include:
1) The medal must have been minted in 1961 or earlier (this may be expanded at some point, possibly to 1964). 2) The medal can not be a token (no face value). 3) The medal should be commemorative in nature and generally can not be a commercial advertising piece. 4) It must be greater than 32mm in diameter, and can not be a lot larger than a traditional silver dollar.

Those came out better than we expected... they look amazing in hand. Look great in copper and silver too >>
I got my set of 1 copper and 1 silver medal mid-last week, and was going to message you, Mike, that they had been received. Now that this thread is here, I'll say this..... Mr. Carr did a really nice job on these. I think I'll be sending them off to ANACS (or is it ICG, or both...if both, such a decision...lol), put them in the special D. Carr autographed holders, put them with my D. Carr Denver Mint commems that the MINT didn't THINK to make. These medals DID come out nice, but, no 'coa's' with these? That DD '55 is just a great compliment to the Grizzly taken from the Cali Diamond Jubilee Commem, and it IS well done! The work on that part of it is really nice. If you like the design just by looking at an image, you'll love the design on a hunk of silver (and/or copper), in your hand. I'd post images, but medals are not with me, so I'll post some crappy images later on. Hmmmmm, there don't seem to be ANY of them on ebay, except for Mike's gold piece...... hmmm, NONE on ebay....... maybe I...., nah, just kidding, Mike! THANKS for the great service too, Mike....top notch!!
For all of you that like them, get them while you can, if you can. If you get the opportunity to pick these up, do it, you won't regret it!!!
And I also just learned that the NA Mint in Rochester, NY is responsible for minting most of the RNA medals. Does the NA Mint have store cards and did William LaMere Sr. ever strike a medal of himself? Just curious
Here's a 400th meeting medal from the Milwaukee Numismatic Society that I enjoyed picking up. It is designed by Gale Vergil Highsmith, the then President of the club. It has a nice combination of design, relief and size. A copy of the club's article on the article on the piece is below as well.

The Colonel Thomas Baker - Time Will Justify A Man Who Means Do Right token is neat @PaleElf. I hope you can pick one up.
While I've through Bakersfield, but I didn't realize it was a gold rush town until I just looked it up in Wikipedia now. Tom Baker was from Ohio and went west for the gold rush. He set up Baker's Field in 1863 after the former town in the area was swept away in 1862 by flooding.
The Bakersfield Coin Club was incorporated on May 29, 1962 and was active as of 1986. Anyone know what happened to the club?

I have no clue. I just know it no longer exists. Our last coin shop also went out of business over a year ago. The owner was indicted and ultimately convicted on structuring charges. Now all we have left are a few pawnshops.

That's very cool! Just looked up the 2000 PNS 50th Anniversary medals on Verne Walrafen's GMMNut website. Of interest, the PNS Newsletter says their 2000 medal was the first time GMM muled their dies with an outside design which is common for coin club medals. Interesting because Ron Landis picked up his first two coin presses from Rob McNamara via the Heraldic Art estate sale much earlier.
Here's the PNS newsletter text quoted by Vern on GMMNut:
PITTSBURGH NUMISMATIC SOCIETY (PNS) will be celebrating its 50th anniversary in June, 2000. As part of the celebrations, the club will be issuing gold and silver medals. The medal was designed by one of PNS' members and will be engraved and struck by Ron Landis at the GALLERY MINT. This is the first time that the Gallery Mint has ever muled any of their dies with an outside design.
The gold obverse will be a replica of the 1796 Eagle and the silver obverse will be your choice of either the 1794 or 1796 Half Dollar. (This should make the medals roughly 30.6-31.8mm in diameter.-vrw) The reverse will feature a design commemorating PNS's anniversary. It will have as its central theme a triangle representing Pittsburgh's most notable icon... The Golden Triangle. The Golden Triangle (Pittsburgh's business district) is bounded on the north by the Allegheny River and the south by the Monongahela River. These 2 rivers come together at the point to form the mighty Ohio. Surrounding the triangle on the medal is PITTSBURGH NUMISMATIC SOCIETY 1950-2000. In the center of the triangle will be the stylized logo of the club's initials.
Mintages will be limited to the exact number of pre-booked orders. The prices are $350 for the gold and $25 for the silver. Shipping and handling charges are as follows: $2.00 for the 1st silver and $1.00 for each additional, and $7.00 for each gold. Shipment is expected to be by the end of June, 2000.
I've been a big fan of the Battlefield Coin Show medals since they've come out. They just look very cool. Do you know who designed/engraved/struck these? I know Andrew Fitzsimmons did the 2015 mugs but I'm not sure if he was involved with the medals.
The 2025 medal had a set of three with a silver, copper, and brass minted by Daniel Carr. With a mintage of 20 each, all had matching serial number and were sold out in 3 days after being announced. Another 40 copper medals were minted along with an additional 20 silver. After two weeks on sale, only one copper is remaining along with 3 silver medals.
