History

John Waynes acting career spanned his start in the silent era in 1926 through his final film, The Shootist, that was released in 1976. He passed away from stomach cancer in 1979, just months after making his final public appearance at the Academy Awards in April of that year. He was initially buried in an unmarked grave, but as of 1999 he has a headstone with a quotation that links directly to this coin. The inscription on the reverse around Waynes image is based on the quote from his headstone that reads:

Tomorrow is the most important thing in life. Comes into us at midnight very clean. Its perfect when it arrives and it puts itself in our hands. It hopes weve learned something from yesterday.
