The 1982 George Washington Half Dollar marked the first
commemorative coin since 1954 and ushered in the era of modern
commemoratives. Honoring the 250th Anniversary of the birth of George
Washington, this half dollar was also the first 90% silver coin produced by the
U.S. Mint since 1964 and the only commemorative half dollar to be minted in all
silver. The front features a young George Washington on his horse, while
the reverse has Mount Vernon, Washington's Virginia home.
Our special proof edition coin was struck at San Francisco and
signed by Donna Pope, the 33rd Director of the U.S. Mint. Pope is credited
with bringing back the popular commemorative coins program. The deep
cameo PR-69 coin is encapsulated in clear acrylic to preserve beauty
and condition. It comes in a 5" x 4" display box with a certificate of
authenticity. More details about the 1982-S PR-69 Signed Washington Half
Dollar include:
