The $1 silver dollar has a rich history as part of the US Mints commemorative coin program. While these coins were originally created as circulating currency, the US Mint ended silver dollar production for daily use in the 1930s. In the decades since, these coins have been issued as commemorative pieces that celebrate the history and heritage of the United States. Right now, $1 US Mint Commemorative Silver Coins are available for purchase online at BGASC in varied conditions.

Designs

The obverse and reverse designs of these coins vary depending on the year and program. The series began with the 1983 coin celebrating the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles. Since then, many designs have honored Americas rich history and culture.

History

Commemorative coins were an essential part of the US Mints offerings from the 1840s through 1956. After a hiatus, the program was restarted in 1982, beginning with a half dollar honoring George Washingtons 250th birthday.

In 1983, the US Mint introduced the $1 commemorative silver dollar. This denomination has since become a cornerstone of the Mints commemorative coin program, issued nearly every year to honor key people, events, and places in American history.
