Introducción de monedas
The 2008 Bald Eagle Half Dollar represented the first commemorative half dollar issued since 2003. The coin was issued as part of the Bald Eagle Commemorative Coin Program, authorized to celebrate the recovery of the Bald Eagle species and the 35th anniversary of the Endangered Species Act. The two other coins issued for the program were a $5 gold coin and silver dollar. The Bald Eagle Half Dollars were minted at the San Francisco Mint in proof and uncirculated versions. The coins were sold individually or included in two specially issued sets. The Bald Eagle Commemorative 3 Coin Proof Set, contained proof versions of the half dollar, silver dollar, and $5 gold coins. The Bald Eagle Commemorative Young Collector’s Set contained the uncirculated version of the half dollar and educational information for younger collectors. The maximum authorized mintage for the half dollar across all options was 750,00. All coins of the program included a surcharge payable to the American Eagle Foundation for the continuation of their work.Leer más
