Modern Commemoratives are a category of collectible coins produced by the United States Mint starting in 1982, designed to celebrate significant events, people, or anniversaries in American history. These coins often have limited mintage and are made from precious metals like silver or gold, increasing their desirability among collectors. The 1 One Dollar Modern Commemoratives issued in 1983 highlight specific commemorative themes, contributing to their value and appeal within the numismatic market.
