The beautiful Abraham Lincoln Commemorative Silver Dollar celebrates the life and legacy of one of America’s greatest leaders. The Nation’s 16th President, serving from 1861 – 1865, Lincoln demonstrated uncommon courage during the Civil War. Today, his life is commemorated in music, poetry and sculpture; his words are quoted by poets and politicians; and his face appears on coins, currency and postage stamps. Mountains, cities, highways and schools throughout the country bear his name.

The obverse of this proof silver dollar coin features an image of President Lincoln. The image is symbolic of Lincoln’s strength and resolve, and was inspired by Daniel Chester French’s famous sculpture of the President that sits inside the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. The reverse of the coin features the immortal words Lincoln spoke at Gettysburg — the last 43 words of his most famous speech – inscribed within a laurel wreath. Under the wreath is a curling banner with Lincoln’s signature incused in the center.
