If you are referring to this page
Medal - 75th Anniversary of Army & Air Force Exchange - United States – Numista
Yes, it was produced in Sterling Silver (925) mintage is 7,507 according to this reference. It has not been added to Numista and you could help by adding yours. There is a link at the bottom of the current bronze page “Duplicate This Link” and then all you would need to do is add your pictures and change the composition. The referee of that section will probably be more than happy to assist with any minor correction if needed.

Jerry, is the silver reeding enough proof with my pictures or is it something I need to get a jeweler’s opinion on?
i will add the pics.

Silver reeding??
It should have on the edge the following at a smooth spot on the reeding STERLING FM 70 P
If it does not have STERLING you have the bronze variety
Thank you for your help Jerry.
Congratulations!
A link for those who would like to see the silver version:
Alignment is really different or is that a mistake?

Do you mean compared to the Bronze?
Yes.
Just the way the photos were taken. Two different contributors using different cameras and different lighting.
Shouldn't have anything to do with the pictures. One says Coin alignment and the other Medal alignment. Maybe I should have said Orientation is different although Numista calls it alignment when creating/editing.
