Letter
Dear Mr. Ryder:
In its meeting of 17 October, the Commission of Fine Arts reviewed a set of alternative designs for a medal honoring the U.S. Navy, part of a series of commemorative medals for the nation’s armed forces. Consistent with the preferences of the Citizens Coinage Advisory Committee (CCAC) and the Mint’s liaison, the Commission members recommended obverse alternative #12 and reverse alternative #4; they agreed with the CCAC’s finding that this pairing would effectively illustrate the personnel, equipment, and mission of the U.S. Navy.
As always, the staff is available to assist you.
Sincerely,
/s/Thomas E. Luebke, FAIA
Secretary
David Ryder, Director
