    I wonder if they're authentic. They're not cancelled. Then again, do they require to be cancelled since they weren't used for circulating coins?

    D2 is the type of steel not the hardness. D2 is mainly used for dies.

    Medallic dies aren't "required" to be destroyed or canceled, but with limited-edition art medals (usually numbered), they typically are.
