Introducing the 2012-P $1 Star-Spangled Banner Commemorative Proof Coin – a shining tribute to the bicentennial of our national anthem and a symbol of the enduring spirit of the United States. This meticulously crafted coin, struck in 90% silver and 10% copper, is a testament to the historic significance of "The Star-Spangled Banner." Obverse Design: The obverse of this exquisite proof coin features a stirring portrayal of Lady Liberty, her gaze fixed upon the flag as she holds the Torch of Enlightenment. The American flag waves proudly in the background, and above it, the words "In God We Trust" serve as a reminder of the nation's faith and unity. The year "2012" is prominently displayed to commemorate the bicentennial anniversary. Reverse Design: The reverse of the coin showcases a beautifully detailed depiction of the American flag as it flew over Fort McHenry during the British War of 1812. The flag, with its distinctive 15 stars and 15 stripes, symbolizes the fortitude and determination of those who defended their homeland. The words "E Pluribus Unum" and "One Dollar" are inscribed below, reaffirming the motto of unity that defines our great nation. Coin Specifications: Composition: 90% Silver, 10% Copper Edge: Reeded Diameter: 38.10 millimeters Weight: 26.73 grams Mint: Philadelphia Maximum Authorized Mintage: 169,065 Historical Significance: The Star-Spangled Banner, written by Francis Scott Key during the British War of 1812, holds a special place in American history. In 1916, President Woodrow Wilson ordered the song to be played at military ceremonies, and in 1931, Congress officially adopted it as the national anthem of the United States. This coin pays homage to that historic moment when the flag, illuminated by the dawn's early light, symbolized the resilience and strength of a young nation. Issue Date: The 2012-P Star-Spangled Banner Commemorative Proof Coin was issued on March 5, 2012, marking the beginning of its journey to inspire and commemorate this significant moment in American history. This proof coin is not just a collector's item; it's a symbol of patriotism and the enduring values that define the United States. Whether you're a history enthusiast, a proud American, or simply appreciate the beauty of finely crafted coins, the 2012-P Star-Spangled Banner Commemorative Proof Coin is a must-have addition to your collection. It stands as a shining tribute to the land of the free and the home of the brave.
