jpsned Pillar of the Community United States 1954 Posts	Posted 08/05/2024 12:35 pm Here is a sample. I also have a George Washington medal that is clearly from the same series. They're larger than a quarter but smaller than a half dollar. Does anyone know anything about these medals--when they were made, by whom, etc.?

jpsned Pillar of the Community United States 1954 Posts	Posted 08/07/2024 12:44 pm Alpha, we have a winner! It's definitely from the Reader's Digest series. And yes, my RMN medal/coin definitely was made before 1974. Coinfrog, it's made out of brass. Is that considered bullion? Edited by jpsned 08/07/2024 12:45 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Is that considered bullion? I do not believe the is a consensus as to whether copper, bronze, or brass are bullion. Copper, maybe. Brass and Bronze, probably not as they are impure copper alloys.
