2010 American Veterans Disabled for Life Silver Dollar
2010 American Veterans Disabled for Life Silver Dollar
The 2010 American Veterans Disabled for Life Silver Dollar will be issued for one of the two commemorative coin programs authorized for the year. This program will honor members of the United States Armed Forces who have made enormous personal sacrifices for their country.
The obverse of the coin shows the legs and boots of three veterans with a pair of crutches. The inscriptions include "They Stood Up For Us", "In God We Trust", "Liberty" and the date of issue "2010". The obverse was designed and sculpted by Don Everhart.
The Disabled Veterans Silver Dollar features a forget-me-not flower at the base of a wreath, wrapped in ribbons with clusters of oak branches. The forget-me-not is widely recognized as a symbol for those who fought and became disabled in World War I. A central inscription reads "Take This Moment to Honor Our Disabled Defenders of Freedom." Other inscriptions read "United States of America", "E Pluribus Unum", and the denomination "One Dollar". The reverse was also designed and sculpted by Don Everhart.
The American Veterans Disabled for Life Commemorative coins will be produced in proof and uncirculated versions. The maximum mintage across both versions is 350,000 coins. Details of the pricing and any possible special issue sets have not been announced by the United States Mint. A surcharge added to the cost of each coin will be distributed to the Disabled Veterans' LIFE Memorial Foundation to establish an endowment for the construction of a memorial in Washington, DC.
