A special label for 2018 World War I Centennial silver dollars and Service medals is being offered by the Professional Coin Grading Service.

This includes the option to holder both the proof dollar and proof medal together in a two-coin holder, the firm said.

The proof and uncirculated dollars are available individually with the special labels. The two-coin holder encapsulates a proof dollar and a proof Service medal together.

But buyers of the two-piece proof set have a wait ahead of them. The coins went on sale Jan. 17. The Mint won’t ship the two-piece silver dollar and medal sets until late May 2018.
