Bicentennial commemorative coins
Bicentennial commemorative coins are special edition coins issued to celebrate a 200-year milestone of an event or nation's founding. Typically minted by a government mint, such as the U.S. Mint, they often feature unique designs, symbols, or imagery representing the historical significance of that anniversary. These coins can be in various forms, including proof or uncirculated circulation coins, and are often collected for their historical value and craftsmanship. While they are legal tender, their value as collectibles usually exceeds their face value. Bicentennial coins serve as tangible reminders of a nation's history and heritage.
