This coin is a modern commemorative dollar, minted in 2010 by the West Point Mint in the United States of America. It is part of the series recognized as "Modern Commemoratives," which often celebrate significant events, individuals, or themes in American history. The coin has a denomination of $1 (One Dollar) and is composed of 90% silver and 10% copper, giving it a substantial weight of 26.73 grams. Its diameter measures 38.1 millimeters, and it features a reeded edge, characteristic of many U.S. coins, which helps prevent counterfeiting and increases grip for handling. The design of this coin was created by Don Everhart, a talented engraver who has contributed numerous designs for U.S. coinage. With a total mintage of 77,859, this piece falls into a more limited production run, which can enhance its desirability among collectors. Notably, this specific coin does not bear a mint mark, indicating it was produced without a distinguishing mark that typically signifies the mint location. Its quality and rarity, coupled with its silver content, contribute to its potential value among numismatists and those interested in modern commemorative issues.
