1992-S XXV Olympiad Commemorative Half Dollar Proof

An Olympic Coin That Will Have You Leaping For Joy

The 1992 Summer and Winter Olympics–the XXV Olympiad–were the last games to be staged in the same year. To celebrate the games, the United States Mint struck a series of one-year-only legal-tender commemorative coins, including this elegant half-dollar that shows a graceful gymnast performing a straight leg split on the balance beam against a background that shows a portion of the American Flag.

Low-Mintage Uncirculated Version

The coin was struck in 11.34 grams of copper-nickel (75% copper and 25% nickel over a pure copper center) and was produced with a Proof finish at the San Francisco Mint and in Uncirculated condition at the Philadelphia Mint. Here you can secure the 1992-S XXV Olympiad Commemorative Half Dollar in gorgeous Proof condition that was expertly crafted by the mint from hand-selected planchets, polished dies, and multiple strikes to produce beautifully frosted details rising over mirror-like fields. The limited mintage for the 1992-S XXV Olympiad Commemorative Half Dollar Proof had a limited mintage of just 519,645 coins.

One Of America's Most Decorated Gymnasts

For many people, the image of the female gymnast that graces the coin is a tribute to Shannon Miller. Just 15 at the time of the 1992 Summer Games, she placed 2nd in all-around, 3rd in uneven bars, 2nd in balance beam, and 3rd in third in floor exercise to lead Team USA to a third-place finish behind only the perennial powers of Russia (competing as the Unified team of former Soviet nations) and Romania. Miller went on to become world all-around champion in 1993 and 1994 and was a member of the gold medal-winning "Magnificent Seven" team at the 1996 Olympics. Along with Simone Biles, she is the most decorated U.S. gymnast in Olympics history.
