This is part of the modern Silver Commemorative series released from the United States Mint over the past 23 years. In 1993 the United States celebrated the 50th anniversary of the United States involvement in World War II and created this one-dollar Silver commemorative.

This coin was issued from the United States Mint and on the front of the coin shows an American soldier on the beach at Normandy, while on the back of the coin one sees the shoulder sleeve insignia of Supreme Headquarters Allied Expeditionary Force, with a quote from Dwight D. Eisenhower, "I have full confidence in your courage, devotion to duty and skill in battle. We will accept nothing less than full victory!".

This coin has a quality (GRADE) rating of 69 out of 70 (This quality (GRADE) rating comes from the Sheldon scale on the theory that a "70" would be worth seventy times as much as a "one") and comes with the sharp Ultra Cameo designation (The Cameo effect is caused when there is a contrast between the image on the coin and the fields surrounding the coin). NGC (Numismatic Guaranty Corporation), endorsed by both the ANA (American Numismatic Association) and PNG (Professional Numismatic Guild), guarantees the quality and authenticity of these coins, great protection and peace of mind. Limited numbers of these remain so act now before they are gone.

Features:

  • Guaranteed US Mint Proof design and production.
  • NGC guarantees the quality and authenticity of each coin.
  • Each coin is individually serial numbered.
  • Comes with the coveted quality of Proof 69 out of 70.
  • 30-day money back guarantee.

    Getting Started Coin Collecting:
    You can look in your pocket change, in penny dishes at department stores, at flea markets, or in the cheap bins at coin shops. Don't worry about if it's worth anything- just start with whatever strikes your fancy. If you want to take care of your coins so they don't get scratched or dented in the box, you can put each one in a small paper envelope before you put it in a box.
