Comments

The Statue of Liberty Silver Dollar was struck in proof at the San Francisco Mint and in uncirculated at the Philadelphia Mint. The coins had a maximum authorized mintage of 10 million, and eventually sold more than 70% of that amount. The silver dollar was sold individually or as part of a two, three, or six coin set. The coins could initially be purchased at a discounted “pre-issue” price before regular pricing went into effect.
