Re: Here's my calculations
In Response To: Club Medal Silver Content ()

I bought one of the 2-piece medal sets (1 silver + 1 bronze) at last summer's convention. Marked 32nd Convention / 2025 / Final mintage. (Final mintage means that 2025 was the last year that the silver & bronze medals were made; discontinued for 2026 and beyond.)

On the edge of the silver medal it is stamped .999 Fine Silver. I weighed it on my digital scale (without the plastic holder) and it comes in at 32 grams. Since 1 troy ounce of silver weighs 31.1034768, and allowing for the .001 non-silver content, the CCA silver medal is basically exactly 1 Troy Ounce.

As to current silver spot price value, it's listed as $3.71 per gram x 32 grams =$118.72 silver value for a CCA medal. (Is that correct? I didn't realize silver was anywhere near that value!)

One other oddity, on the CCA website showing the various promotional items, the 2-piece medal set is/was listed at $65. However, there may not be any left in stock now. When I was working the Promotions Table at the convention in June, I think they all sold out by the end of the show. Too bad, because the silver medal alone is worth twice the price of the 2-piece set last June!

Hope that helps. I think my calculations above are correct, but if not, someone please correct me. grin
