I didn't know that! I registered with them (and can see my name on the spreadsheet) but never got a certificate. That's pretty cool!
I’ve heard from more recent finishers (post covid) that they quit mailing out the certificates. As of 2018 they were still sending them.
I did not realize they stopped sending them out. I was hoping to get something similar when I finish the Centennials. You can probably fabricate something yourself.

I can confirm they do not send them out. I finished in 2019 and probably would've received one then, but didn't fill out the form until a year or 2 ago ](*,)

I finished the 14ers many years ago (1990) but never submitted my name to the CMC. When I finished the Centennials in 2018, at the urging of my daughter I submitted my name as a Centennial finisher. CMC sent me a 14ers finisher certificate.

My brother and nephew both finished last summer. They registered with CMC. They received certificates in the mail.

Congratulations on finishing! And for hustling a bottle of The Widow to the top. Champagne can make one quite woozy I would have had a hard time continuing to Red after taking even a few sips.
