    seems interesting enough. I’m just wondering where they are going to procure the gold and silver for the coins.

    What do you mean…The US Mint sells silver,gold,platinum all the time. I have an entire modern gold proof commemorative set, and this would make a nice addition. Wish they did the USMC in gold instead of silver…but those where nice coins as well
