From Ron Landis on Facebook:
"It won't be long now! The new Gallery Mint Museum website will be up soon. I'll be releasing several new silver art medals with the rollout. We had some setbacks due to the large size and extremely high relief of all of these, but we loaded up and moved my 400 ton hydraulic press to the new facility in Texas yesterday. Now we'll be able to produce the working dies for the new series."
I'm really looking forward to what he produces. He showed a hand-engraved master die with the Mercury Dime portrait (I think I've posted that here before).

Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......
He's shooting for an April 2 launch date (226th anniversary of the US Mint).

Awesome!!!
And, as in the past, he will comply with US law in marking replicas (HPA).
I’m anxiously waiting

This is great news. I like the date tie in to the US Mint.
I can't wait to see the new pieces and any photos of his press!
Will be interesting to see Ron's new work... His 80's medal..

Don't have any in the 70's or 10's yet but here is one from the 00's
Nice @Coinlearner!!
In addition to the 80s and 90s, I have his work from the 70s (I think), 00s and 10s. It's been great to see the transition.

There was an article showing the progression with a few more pieces but I cant find it now. A number of these older websites have gone offline recently which is unfortunate.
Great news, I really enjoy his work.
