The Madison County Coin Club of Huntsville, Alabama, is issuing very special club medals to commemorate their 25th anniversary in 2026. The club has commissioned renowned engraver and artist Daniel Carr, proprietor of the Moonlight Mint of Loveland, Colorado, to produce the pieces. The medals" main motifs mimic Robert Scott"s early 19th century coins featuring a draped bust obverse with heraldic eagle reverse. The medals have additional obverse and reverse inscriptions around the rim that read MADISON COUNTY COIN CLUB / HUNTSVILLE ALABAMA and EDUCATION * PUBLIC SERVICE * FELLOWSHIP / 2001-2026 25th ANNIVERSARY, respectively.
These octagonal medals are 41 mm in diameter and will be available in silver for $100, copper for $15, and a copper piedfort for $35. The silver has a mintage limit of 50, the copper 100, and the copper piedfort 60. Please note that an additional 35 silver, copper, and copper piedfort medals were reserved by club members as part of a four-medal member only set, which contained an additional silver piedfort medal.
If you are interested in acquiring these medals, send an email to
