One of the most widely collected denominations of US Mint commemorative coinage is the silver dollar. While silver dollars were once produced as circulating currency, their role shifted in the 1930s when the US Mint ceased striking them for everyday use. In the modern era, these coins have been primarily issued as commemorative pieces. Right now, $1 US Mint Commemorative Silver Coins are available for purchase online at JM Bullion in varied conditions.

This indicates coins that exhibit full, original mint luster and a maximum of two minor flaws. Examples of those flaws include only minuscule contact marks or hairlines located outside the primary focal points.

All coins are chosen at random after your payment has been processed. If you buy more than one, you may get matching coins.

The United States Mint produced commemorative coins regularly from the 1840s to 1956. However, the Eisenhower Administration put an end to these releases, citing concerns over declining design quality and waning collector interest.

Modern commemorative coin programs resumed in 1982, beginning with a half dollar issued to honor the 250th anniversary of George Washington’s birth. By 1983, the US Mint had introduced the now-familiar $1 commemorative silver dollar, a format that has since become a staple of the program. Nearly every year since has featured the release of $1 US Mint Commemorative Silver Coins.

The obverse and reverse designs of these $1 US Mint Commemorative Silver Coins vary depending on the program and year of release. The series began with the 1983 issue commemorating the 1984 Summer Olympics, held in Los Angeles. Each design highlights significant people, places, or events in US history.
