    She did reach out and asked if I would sell it - I asked what would she offer?
    And I haven't heard anything else?

    I see this thread goes way back, but I though y'all might be interested to see mine- looks like same medal (sans bezel), and on the EDGE, it is marked "STERLING". Acid test of a light scrape on the edge confirms mine is SILVER.
    Have you checked the edge of yours? You might want to consider that, if someone tries to buy it.
    Interestingly, mine is shiny proof-like on one side, but dull like yours on the other. Must have something to do with the plastic sleeve and box it was in. 20251206_211659~2.jpg 20251206_211939_HDR~2.jpg

    I will check edge today, thanks!
    What are they worth?

    Whatever you can get. "Melt value" would be OZT weight X .925 X Spot Silver price (divide by 31.1 if using grams) at any given moment. What you can "get" depends on who you are selling it to and whether they are buying the ITEM or just METAL. Of course, "metal" buyers will generally pay something less than 100%.
    I believe mine weighed around 25.7 grams which at last Friday's market close price, full melt value would be around $44.54.

    I think it'd be worth more than melt because they are so cool & they seem hard to find, but silver is pretty high!

    If you can get Melt+cool, have at. Silver is so crazy high now though, that melt may be the limit.
