"Metallic Art Co." of Danbury, CT. I've tried looking up the company with no
luck- they either don't have a website or have gone out of business.

I did a search and got this:

Medallic Art Co. 80 Airpark Vista Blvd Dayton, Nevada 89403-8303, Phone:
775-246-6000. (no website listed)

Medallic Art Company was formed in 1903 by Henry Weil, a highly respected
French sculptor living in New York City.

Medallic Art grew in size and prestige in New York before moving to Danbury,
Connecticut, in 1972. In 1991, Medallic Art relocated to Sioux Falls South
Dakota after it was acquired by Tri-State Mint, a respected private minting
operation. Initially, Tri-State Mint ran Medallic Art as a division of its
precious metal minting operation, but eventually Tri-State Mint changed its
name and all of its operations now exist under Medallic Art Company Ltd.

In 1997, Medallic Art Company relocated to its present 115,000 square foot
state-of-the-art facilities in Dayton, Nevada, just minutes from the famous
Comstock Lode silver mines and Nevada gold fields of the 1850s.

Today, Medallic Art Company is the oldest and largest private mint in the
United States. Nearly a century in existence has earned Medallic Art Company a
place of distinction and world-wide recognition in minting.

Hope this helps somewhat.
