This is a lot of two 1982-S George Washington 250th Anniversary Commemorative Half Dollars. Each coin is a Proof strike, composed of 90% silver, and comes in its original protective capsule with the U.S. Mint box and Certificate of Authenticity. This coin marked the return of commemorative coinage in the United States after a 28-year hiatus. These coins are historically significant as they were the first modern commemorative coins issued by the U.S. Mint since 1954, designed by Elizabeth Jones. The outer maroon box shows minor shelf wear while the inner display box and Certificate of Authenticity are in excellent condition. Inventory #196
