Mintage Limit is the total number of a coin manufactured across all products. (For example, a coin may be available in rolls and in our annual sets).
Product Limit is the number of a coin made available in the individual product.
Household Order Limit In cases where we have limited-mintage products (e.g., legislatively mandated or Mint established production or mintage limits), the United States Mint may impose order or household order limits. Order limits help us ensure that we provide fair purchase opportunities to the broadest audience possible. As we monitor our products, limits may be implemented, adjusted, or removed at our discretion.
The Santee Sioux Tribe Code Talkers Bronze Medal is a bronze duplicate of the Congressional Gold Medal awarded to Santee Sioux Tribe Code Talkers at a ceremony at the U.S. Capitol Building on November 20, 2013, in recognition of their dedication and valor.
The obverse design depicts a Santee Sioux Code Talker looking up and focusing on the task required. The barbed wire is a symbol of the threat to the soldier.

The reverse design depicts the Santee Sioux Nation seal. Inscriptions are “WORLD WAR I - WORLD WAR II” and “ACT OF CONGRESS 2008.”
