2010 American Veterans Disabled for Life Proof Silver Dollar (AV1)

BOX and COA

The coin designs are emblematic of the many stories of our disabled veterans’ courage, loyalty and sacrifice. The obverse of this coin features an image of the legs and boots of three veterans. The inscription in the banner along the upper rim, THEY STOOD UP FOR US, pays tribute to our courageous disabled veterans who have survived military service injuries for our freedom. Additional inscriptions are IN GOD WE TRUST, 2010 and LIBERTY.

The reverse design depicts a forget-me-not flower at the base of a wreath wrapped in a ribbon that cradles and supports clusters of oak branches. The oak branches represent strength, while the forget-me-not is a widely recognized icon that first served as a reminder of those who fought and became disabled in World War I.

Coins as boxed from the US Mint unhandled and include COA.
