U.S. Mint Modern Commemorative Gold Coins

The United States Congress authorizes the minting of commemorative coins to celebrate and honor American people, places, events and institutions. Although these coins are legal tender, they are not minted for general circulation.

Each commemorative coin is produced by the United States Mint in limited quantity and is available for a limited time. Though the U.S. Mint offers the coins directly to the public for a short period of time at a set price, acquisitions of certified versions of the coins occur on the open market, with supply and demand driving the prices.

More Information About Modern Commemorative Coins

Modern commemorative gold coins from the U.S. Mint celebrate American history and culture and a surcharge on the coins when purchased from the Mint helps to support popular causes. For example, a portion of the proceeds from the Capitol Visitor Center commemorative coins helped to fund the construction of a new visitor center under the U.S. Capitol's East Plaza.

According to the U.S. Mint, more than $418 million has been raised to help build museums, maintain national monuments like the Vietnam War Memorial, preserve historical sites like George Washington's home and support various Olympic programs.
