Why Collectors Love Commemorative Coins

Commemorative Coins Are a Part of American History

Collectors appreciate that commemorative coins are mint issued to recognize someone or something that is a part of American history. They are also produced to celebrate the anniversary of a notable occasion or date that also adds to the historical appeal.

Uniquely Distinctive Designs

Commemorative coins are known for their intricate, distinctive designs. These coins are meant to serve as a visual representation of an event, people or organizations, which must be captured in accurate and meaningful images. There are also small details like the 1776-1976 dual date on George Washington Bicentennial Quarters that set commemorative coins apart.

Limited Time Production

Commemorative coins are typically produced for a limited time. The scarcity factor is something that certainly appeals to coin collectors. The more limited the quantity, the more collectible a coin could be.

If you collect special coins that are rare, check our inventory regularly since new items are added daily. Browse our coin collections to find your next collectible.

What to Consider When Purchasing a Commemorative Coin

The Commemorative Coin Period: There are early commemoratives and modern commemoratives that were mint released in the last 40 years. When a commemorative coin is minted can impact the supply, materials that are used, the coin’s value and more.

The Commemorative Coin Program:The United States mint has at least one commemorative coin program almost every single year dating back to 1982 for modern commemoratives. Commemorative coin programs must be authorized by Congress, solidifying that the coins will serve as symbolic history of American culture.

Denomination Factors:Commemorative coins aren't taken at face value since they aren't really meant for general circulation like conventional money. While a silver dollar is technically more valuable as legal tender, that doesn't mean the market value is twice as much as a half dollar commemorative coin.
