1988 United States Olympic Commemorative Silver Dollar – Proof
1988 United States Olympic Commemorative Silver Dollar – Proof
An official collectible issued by the United States Mint to commemorate the 1988 Olympic Games, celebrating the ideals of athletic excellence, perseverance, and international unity.
The coin features a striking design of Liberty running with the Olympic torch, symbolizing freedom and the enduring Olympic spirit. The inscriptions include “Liberty,” “In God We Trust,” and the year 1988, reinforcing its historical and national significance.
Struck in 90% silver with a proof finish, the coin displays a brilliant mirror-like surface with sharply defined details typical of U.S. Mint proof issues.
This example is particularly desirable as it includes the complete original presentation set, consisting of the velvet-lined U.S. Mint case, the official Certificate of Authenticity, and the satin interior bearing the USA Olympic emblem. Such complete sets are generally more attractive to collectors.
