Commemoratives

A Rich Tapestry of American History in Commemorative Coins

Gold and Silver Commemorative Coins stand as the pinnacle of numismatic history as they honor the most important American milestones and often showcase one-year-only designs.

The first Silver Commemorative Coin of all time was the 1892 Columbian Exposition Half Dollar, which honored the 400 year anniversary of Christopher Columbus's expedition. The first Gold Commemorative Coin was the 1903 Louisiana Purchase Exposition Gold Dollar. Classic Gold and Silver Commemorative coins were struck until 1954.

After a 28-year hiatus, the U.S. Mint began striking commemorative coins once again, starting the Modern Commemorative Era in 1982 with the George Washington 250th Anniversary Silver Half Dollar. Today, collectors are treated to several gold and silver commemorative coins each year, showcasing the highest quality and artistry.
