Obverse

The obverse of the 2020-P $1 Colorized Basketball HOF Coins features a depiction of players struggling to get the best position to rebound the ball. The field is concave, with a sunken surface that has a net in the background to complete the look of staring down a basketball net. The field has inscriptions of LIBERTY, IN GOD WE TRUST, 2020, and the P mint mark of the Philadelphia Mint.

Reverse

On the reverse side of 2020-P Colorized Basketball HOF Silver Coins is an image of a basketball. In this first-ever colorized coin directly from the United States Mint, the net and rim on the basketball hoop have been colorized. The ball on this side is heading in for a smooth swish through the rim and net. This side of the field is domed, giving the basketball a sense of depth and realism. Inscriptions include UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, E PLURIBUS UNUM, and ONE DOLLAR.

History

The Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame is named for Dr. James Naismith. He wrote the first rule book for the sport of basketball in December 1891. Since then, the game has grown to offer organized competition from the elementary level to the professional level.
