Continuing the Modern Commemoratives Dollar series, we will present you today the 2013 "5 Star Generals" graded by PCGS PR70 DCAM.

All coins of this series weight 26.73g with 90% silver purity. They were issued in Proof and Brilliant Uncirculated finish.

They will be presented in the order they were minted.

This coin was issued to recognize the 5-Star Generals of the United States Army as well as celebrate the 132nd anniversary of the founding of the United States Army Command and General Staff College where each of the generals either taught or attended.

The obverse of the coin features portraits of Generals George C. Marshall and Dwight D. Eisenhower against a striped background with a five star insignia at center.

    Another of the American Commemoratives related to the military. They minted many of them about wars and military personnel...

    I read someplace that in the last 200 years America was in war abroad during 195 years. They have plenty of material for militaristic commemoratives...

      I bought three commemorative US dollars over the weekend (though one I gave away), but every time I come across one I think of you. ☺️

      Lovely coin.

      Thank you for it. I really love commemoratives and I try to buy all that I see and that I can afford the price, of course.
