What this record means
The record shows that “ORION METAL EXCHANGE” is a live, Principal Register service mark owned by Orion Precious Metals, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and it was registered on March 24 2026 after filing on July 16 2025. The registration covers “On‑line retail store services featuring palladium, platinum, collectible coins, gold bullion coins, precious metals, silver bullion coins, precious metals, namely, gold, silver, platinum, and palladium,” all in International Class 035, so a similar name used for any online retail of those metals or coins would be the closest area of concern. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the words “Orion,” “Metal,” or “Exchange” outside that specific online‑retail context. The prosecution history shows a straightforward examination: the application was assigned to an examiner, approved for publication, published for opposition on February 3 2026, and then registered on the Principal Register, with no supplemental‑register step. The most recent status event is the registration confirmation emailed on March 24 2026, and the supplied history contains no opposition, cancellation or other enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a comparable online metal‑trading service.
