About This Item
In 1892, the US Mint began producing commemorative coins to honor notable people and events throughout the country’s history. The first of these coins celebrated the 400th anniversary of Columbus’ voyage across the Atlantic.
The mint continued producing countless commemorative coins over the next 62 years. Starting in 1954, production of these coins ceased until 1982, when the George Washington Fifty Cent Piece was released to celebrate the 250th birthday of the nation’s first president. Additional designs include the United States Constitution, the US Congress bicentennial, World War II 50th anniversary, the Bill of Rights, Jamestown’s 400th anniversary, and more.
The mint has issued a range of commemorative coins in a variety of denominations, including $5 gold coins. These US commemorative coins are deemed legal tender, though they were not produced for general circulation. Sales of these coins helps fund a plethora of public projects.
The dates and designs of these coins will be randomized and may or may not include a variety. However, each coin will be in uncirculated or proof condition.
