The 2015 March of Dimes Dollar Brilliant Uncirculated is a commemorative silver dollar coin that honors the important work of the March of Dimes Foundation in improving the health of mothers and babies. Designed by Paul C. Balan and Don Everhart, this Brilliant Uncirculated coin pays tribute to the organization's efforts to prevent birth defects, premature birth, and infant mortality. Specifications: Designer: Paul C. Balan/Don Everhart Edge: Reeded Diameter: 38.10 millimeters Weight: 26.73 grams Mintage: 24,742 Mint: Philadelphia Metal: 90% Silver, 10% Copper The March of Dimes Foundation has a long history of advocating for the health of mothers and infants. It was originally founded in 1938 by President Franklin D. Roosevelt to combat polio, and it has since expanded its mission to address a broader range of maternal and child health issues. The obverse of the coin features a heartwarming design that depicts a mother holding her premature baby. This design symbolizes the March of Dimes Foundation's commitment to supporting families and ensuring the health of infants. The obverse also includes inscriptions such as "Liberty," "In God We Trust," "2015," and other elements that represent the organization's mission. On the reverse side of the coin, the design includes the inscriptions "United States of America," "E Pluribus Unum," "$1," and the March of Dimes logo, which features the profile of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, honoring his role in the foundation's creation and mission. The Mint also struck a proof version of the coin with the same denomination, year, and design, both of which were issued under Public Law 112-209. This coin serves as a lasting tribute to the March of Dimes Foundation's dedication to the health and well-being of mothers and babies across the United States.
