Comments

The 1995 Olympic Cycling Silver Dollar was one of sixteen coins issued to commemorate the 1996 Summer Olympic Games held in Atlanta, Georgia. The coins were released over the course of two years from 1995 to 1996 and included clad half dollars, silver dollars, and $5 gold coins.

The coin was issued in proof and uncirculated with a combined maximum authorized mintage of 750,000 coins. The proof coins were minted in Philadelphia and the uncirculated coins were minted at Denver. The coins were included in some multi-coin sets offered by the US Mint, as well as individually. This coin had the lowest mintage of any of the 1995 Silver Dollars and today carries a premium because of this low mintage.
