Silver commemorative coins from the United States, first issued in 1892, are created to honor significant events, people, or places in American history. The 1948 coins mark the resumption of production after World War II, featuring designs that celebrate the 100th anniversary of U.S. statehood for Hawaii and the 300th anniversary of the founding of the city of New Orleans. These coins are typically struck in 90% silver and are highly sought after by collectors for their historical significance and craftsmanship.
