In honor of the 250th anniversary of U.S. independence, the Mint curated a list of 21 historic coins spanning our Nation’s history, from its founding in 1792 to the 21^st century. Following public input and expert recommendation, five Best of the Mint coins were selected for this special series: the 1916 Mercury Dime, the 1916 Standing Liberty Quarter Dollar, the 1916 Walking Liberty Half Dollar, the 1804 Silver Dollar, and the 1907 Saint-Gaudens High Relief $20 Gold Coin.

The Best of the Mint 1916 Mercury Dime Gold Coin and Silver Medal Set features a 24-karat one-tenth ounce fine gold coin and a one-ounce medal made of 99.9% fine silver. Pricing for this product is in accordance with the United States Mint pricing range table for gold coins.

1916 Mercury Dime 24K Gold Coin

The coin’s obverse (heads) depicts Liberty in profile facing left, wearing a winged cap symbolizing freedom of thought. Inscriptions are “LIBERTY,” “IN GOD WE TRUST,” and “1916.” To commemorate the Semiquincentennial of our Nation’s founding, the coin features a unique Liberty Bell privy mark with the numeral “250.” The coin’s reverse (tails) depicts a fasces (a bundle of rods) to symbolize strength through unity. The battle ax and the olive branch represent America’s military readiness and her desire for peace. Inscriptions are “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “E PLURIBUS UNUM,” and “ONE DIME.”

1916 Mercury Dime – Inspired Silver Medal

Also known as the Winged Liberty Dime, the medal’s obverse features a design that spans from obverse to reverse and reflects the original coin’s period of circulation from 1916 through 1945. The design represents years of great change and upheaval for the United States, both domestically and abroad. Observing that the United States would enter two world wars during this period, Liberty is depicted in both defensive and offensive postures.

The medal’s reverse design extends to the reverse with rays emitting from Liberty’s sword, symbolic of hope at the end of conflict. The Great Depression is represented by the Hooverville shacks, and the swirling waves in the background represent the Dust Bowl. The inscription is “1916–1945.”

The Pediatric COVID Outcomes Study (PECOS) led by Roberta DeBiasi, MD, MS, chief of the division of Pediatric Infectious Diseases at Children’s National and Gina Montealegre Sanchez, MD, MS, pediatric rheumatologist at NIH’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), provides crucial guidance for understanding pediatric COVID-19 outcomes.
The research teams behind these three papers examined overall symptom burden, behavioral health and cardiology outcomes in hundreds of children and adolescents, comparing those who had COVID-19 with those who did not.

“This study included mostly children with mild COVID-19 similar to what was seen during the pandemic period and results should be interpreted accordingly,” said study author and co-principal investigator, Dr. Montealegre Sanchez.

Long-COVID symptoms identified and tracked
As the first and largest study of its kind in the U.S. to publish longitudinal data, researchers reported on symptoms that children experienced in the first 12 months after enrollment in the study. They identified 20 symptoms more commonly reported in those who had COVID-19, including headaches, fatigue, forgetfulness, gastrointestinal issues, malaise and respiratory issues. Symptoms varied by age, with some appearing early and others persisting or emerging months later.

“This study helps us understand how post-COVID symptoms in children evolve over time, and importantly, across different age groups,” said Alexandra Yonts, MD, infectious diseases specialist at Children’s National and co-lead author of the study. “Since childhood is such a dynamic period of growth and development, tracking these symptoms at multiple time points and in children of many different ages is critical to know what the true long-term impacts of SARS-CoV-2 infection look like in the pediatric population.”

Physical health impacted, but mental health effects widespread
In another research project conducted with more than 800 youth who participated in the broader PECOS study, researchers found that children who had COVID-19 reported worse global health, reduced physical and cognitive functioning, and increased fatigue, pain and sleep disturbances. However, rates of anxiety and depression were similar between infected and uninfected children.

“The pandemic has affected all children’s mental health, not just those who were infected,” said research paper author Linda Herbert, PhD, director of Psychology Research and Clinical Services, Allergy and Immunology at Children’s National. “These findings highlight the broad impact of this experience on an entire generation.”

No evidence of heart damage in children
In reassuring news, a third prospective project found no evidence that COVID-19 causes long-term heart damage in children. Using advanced imaging, researchers observed no differences in cardiac function between infected and uninfected youth or even before and after infection. Children reporting symptoms such as chest pain or fatigue also had normal heart function.
“While some children experience these seemingly cardiac symptoms, our findings show these are not linked to underlying heart dysfunction,” said research paper author Michael He, MD, cardiology fellow at Children’s National.

A clearer path forward for care
Together, these findings help distinguish between the direct effects of COVID-19 infection and the broader impacts of the pandemic itself. The findings will help guide screening, clinical care and reassurance for families navigating post-COVID concerns.

Since its inaugural flight from Tampa to Charleston on May 27, 2021, Breeze has grown from 16 cities to 88 across 35 states and five countries. Its fleet of 52 brand-new Airbus A220-300 aircraft — one of the youngest and most fuel-efficient narrowbody fleet in the U.S. — not only deliver a high-quality onboard experience, but also make it possible to keep fares low while operating more than 300 routes nationwide.

“Five years ago, we set out to prove that travelers shouldn’t have to choose between a low fare and a good experience — that you really can have your cake and eat it too,” said David Neeleman, Breeze Airways founder and CEO. “In that time, we’ve become the fastest-growing airline in the country – increasing seat capacity by more than 40% last year alone while improving profitability. It’s evidence that we’re achieving our purpose of ‘Nice people, flying nice people, to nice places.’”

Redefining Affordable Air Travel

When Breeze launched in 2021, millions of travelers in dozens of mid-sized markets such as Providence, R.I., and Raleigh-Durham, N.C., were forced to fly through congested hubs or required to sacrifice comfort and quality for an affordable fare. Breeze was built to change that — offering convenient, nonstop flights on brand-new aircraft with a high-value offering that allows Guests to select only the amenities they desire in addition to benefitting from nice policies such as free family seating and no change fees and easy self-service technology delivered through the airline’s highly-rated app.

In the five years since the hybrid carrier took flight, Breeze has grown capacity 47% year over year while retaining 95% of the markets it has entered since launch. The airline now operates from 13 bases and is number one in terms of destinations served in 34 of its markets.

Earlier this month, Breeze was listed on the TIME100 Most Influential Companies list for 2026, including being named one of 10 Industry Leaders for travel and tourism. The airline has also been recognized as one of Fast Company’s “World’s Most Innovative Companies” for 2025, “Best Major Airline in North America” by the Airline Passenger Experience Association (APEX), and a top 4 “Best Domestic Airline” by Travel + Leisure for four consecutive years.

“Breeze was built to fill a real gap, and five years in; the numbers prove it,” said Neeleman. “We’re growing faster than anyone else in the industry with a product people genuinely love — and we’re doing it while keeping fares affordable. That’s what high-value, low-cost means.”

Birthday Promotion

To celebrate five years in the skies, Breeze is offering 45% off the base fare on new round-trip flights booked from May 26 through May 29, 2026, using promo code BIRTHDAY, valid for travel between August 11, 2026, and January 30, 2027.

This acquisition expands Kyivstar’s renewable energy generation portfolio nearly ninefold and reflects VEON’s and Kyivstar’s continued investment in Ukraine’s infrastructure and energy sector. Following Kyivstar’s entry into renewable energy in December 2025 with the acquisition of the 13 MW Sunvin 11 solar power plant, Kyivstar’s total installed solar generation capacity now stands at 118 MW. The expected annual output from this combined portfolio is equivalent in volume to approximately 30% of Kyivstar’s current annual electricity consumption across its telecom operations.

Kyivstar will sell 100% of the electricity produced by the newly acquired solar power plants to Ukraine’s unified energy system in accordance with current market and regulatory rules. This enhances the company’s ability to hedge electricity costs by supplying energy from its solar power plants to the national grid at market prices with green energy tariffs, supporting operational efficiency as connectivity demand continues to expand across Ukraine.

“Kyivstar’s investment in renewable energy reflects VEON’s disciplined capital allocation in the markets we serve, deploying capital into infrastructure that generates revenue and provides a partial hedge against rising electricity costs,” said Kaan Terzioglu, Chief Executive Officer of VEON. “As Ukraine’s leading digital operator, Kyivstar plays a critical role in maintaining connectivity for millions of customers. This acquisition strengthens Kyivstar’s operational foundation while contributing to Ukraine’s energy sector development and advancing renewable energy generation.”

“Renewable energy is a key focus area of Kyivstar’s investment portfolio, and this acquisition opens further opportunities for the use of green electricity to meet the company’s energy needs,” said Oleksandr Komarov, President of Kyivstar. “The development of our own energy generation is an important component of our long-term vision aimed at building a safe, sustainable, and efficient infrastructure. Together with VEON, we continue to increase investments in the Ukrainian economy because we believe in Ukraine and its successful future.”

The acquisition of the new solar generation capacity was completed after signing of binding documentation earlier today with the seller, and regulatory approvals were received preceding the transaction.

A brief presentation with key information about this acquisition is available on the VEON website here.

HARGREAVE HALE AIM VCT PLC
(the “Company”)

Allotment of Shares

The Board announced on 23 January 2026 that the Company had published an offer document (the “Offer Document“) in relation to an offer for subscription of ordinary shares of 1 pence each (the “Ordinary Shares“), to raise up to £20,000,000 with an over-allotment facility to raise up to a further £10,000,000 (the “Offer“). On 1 April 2026, the Company allotted 4,655,078 new Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Offer, conditional only on trading on the London Stock Exchange plc’s main market for listed securities (“Admission“), the timetable for which is set out in more detail below.

The offer price at which the 4,655,078 new Ordinary Shares were allotted was 31.78 pence per Ordinary Share, which was calculated, in accordance with the terms of the Offer, by reference to the last published net asset value per Ordinary Share as at the close of business on 27 March 2026 (as announced on 30 March 2026) divided by 0.965 (to allow for the costs of the Offer).

Application will shortly be made for the 4,655,078 new Ordinary Shares to be admitted to the closed-ended investment funds category of the Official List of the Financial Conduct Authority. It is expected that Admission will occur and dealing will commence in the new Ordinary Shares on or around 2 April 2026. When issued, the new Ordinary Shares will rank pari passu with the existing Ordinary Shares.

As a result of the issue, the total number of Ordinary Shares in issue will be 376,240,655 with each Ordinary Share carrying one vote each. Therefore, the total voting rights in the Company will be 376,240,655. This figure may be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules. 

The new Ordinary Shares will be issued in registered form and may be held in uncertificated form. Definitive documents of title are expected to be dispatched within 15 business days of allotment. The new Ordinary Shares will be eligible for settlement through CREST with effect from Admission.

Unless the context requires otherwise, terms defined in the Offer Document have the same meaning where used in this announcement.
