2012 Alaska Wolves!
Alaska's Official State Medallion for 2012 has been announced - It is The Gray Wolf - featuring an Alaska gray wolf face with a second gray wolf in the background.
OUR MEDALLIONS ARE BLOCKS OF LOW SERIAL NUMBERS (some of the first off the press!). If you had an assigned serial number last year you will receive the same number(s) with this year's order.
THE ORDER DEADLINE for getting the same serial number you had in past years was October 22, 2011. If you are a new customer the lowest serial number available will be shipped.
PRICING: Due to the current volatility of the price of silver the prices listed below may change at any time. The Mint informs us if the price of silver goes to $50 an ounce we will likely be looking at a price of $125 for the once ounce proof. Ordering now locks in the current price.

Dr. Gary Kuchinka of Kasilof, Alaska submitted the winning drawing. The medallion will feature a pair of Alaska Timber Wolves. It should be in production as the State Medallion by mid October.
The one-ounce Official Alaska State Medallion Proof should be the first medallion in any Alaska collection. It is made of .999 fine silver mined in the State of Alaska. Each medallion is rim stamped with an individual serial number and production is limited to demand through the year of issue. They come encased in an air tight holder with a velvet presentation box and information card. An information sheet about wolves in Alaska comes with each medallion.
2012 Wolf Gold Relief
If you like a little glitter to your medallions, the gold relief is the medallion for you. Both wolves and the rim edge are layered with a thin 24k plate. Like the plain one ounce silver pieces, these medallions are individually serial numbered and are limited in edition. At the end of the year the gold relief medallions are counted in the total production of one ounce silver medallions. Click the image to enlarge and see the detail of this beautiful medallion.

2012 Alaska Wolf Two Ounce
The two ounce State Medallion offers GREAT detail. Each medallion is individually serial numbered, limited to demand through 2012, and is presented in an Airtight holder. The heft of these two ounce medallions feels very nice! Generally, well under 200 two ounce medallions are struck each year. If you are looking for an Alaskan keepsake to put on display the two ounce is unbeatable!
