Description
This 2018-D medal from the Denver Mint is the Air Service entry in the World War I Centennial Medal Program, honoring the centennial of the armistice that ended the Great War on November 11, 1918. The Air Service medal recognizes the role of American military aviation in World War I, when the fledgling Air Service of the U.S. Army grew from a handful of pilots to a formidable air force that included aces like Eddie Rickenbacker. The centennial medal program produced medals for each of the five military branches that served during the war, each struck at a different U.S. Mint facility. Third-party grading services have brought standardized condition assessment to the medal market, helping establish transparent pricing and increasing collector confidence in authentication and quality evaluation. The Denver Mint mark connects this Air Service medal to one of America's Western minting facilities.
