UNITED STATES ASSAY COMMISSION MEDALS IN SILVER

       Assay Medals were struck from 1860 to 1977.  Metals included Copper, Silver, Aluminum, White Metal, Pewter and a single gold medal.

       The "AC" number classification was introduced by Julian and Keusch in an article in the Token and Medal Society Journal 29:5(2) (1989).

       Distribution of Assay Medals was limited with fewer than 55 pieces struck in a given metal for any given year until the 1977 AC 121 Pewter medal, which Julian lists as "R-2" (500-1250).

        The list below includes only years in which Julian indicates at least one piece struck in silver.
