To keep up with What's New,
Disabled Veterans Silver Coin Act
H.R. 634 passed all legislative branches and the Bill became law on July 17, 2008 when President Bush signed the legislation that will honor disabled Veterans with commemorative silver dollar coins for 2010.
The designs of the coins are to be "emblematic of the service of our disabled veterans who, having survived the ordeal of war, made enormous personal sacrifices defending the principles of our democracy."
The new law will have the U.S. Mint issue up to 350,000 silver dollar coins in 2010 commemorating disabled American Veteran's Disabled for Life Memorial in Washington D.C. A $1 0 surcharge for each coin will help build an American Veterans Disabled for Life Memorial in Washington D.C.
