NOTES: The 1982 George Washington Commemorative Half Dollar marked the beginning of the modern commemorative coin era. The coin was issued to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the birth of George Washington. The coin was designed by Elizabeth Jones, who was serving as the chief sculptor and engraver of the United States Mint at the time the coin was issued. Coins were struck in 90% silver and represented the first 90% silver coins to be produced by the United States Mint since 1964. Proof and uncirculated versions were issued, with proof coins struck at the San Francisco Mint and the uncirculated coins struck at the Denver Mint. A maximum authorized mintage of 10 million coins was established by law. The coins were initially sold at a discount during a “pre-issue” period before regular prices went into effect. Unlike most subsequent modern commemoratives, the George Washington Half Dollars were produced in anticipation of sales throughout 1982 and 1983, although all coins were dated 1982. When the US Mint finally stopped accepting orders for the coins on December 31, 1985, a quantity of more than one million unsold coins were melted. Nonetheless, the program achieved a profit of more than $36 million, which was deposited into the Treasury General Fund. The coin’s silver content of 0.3617 troy ounces of Actual Silver Weight. 1982-D Uncirculated George Washington Half Dollar Pre-issue Price: $10.50 in the 1980's Regular Price: $12.50 in the 1980's Final Mintage: 2,210,458 1982-S Proof George Washington Half Dollar Pre-issue Price: $8.50 in the 1980's Regular Price: $10.00 in the 1980's Final Mintage: 4,894,044 1982 'WASHINGTON' ½ HALF DOLLAR ½ Dollar (George Washington) 1982 Non-circulating coin: 250th Anniversary of George Washington's Birth Silver (.900) • 12.5 g • ⌀ 30.61 mm, KM# 208 2022 Marks the 290th Anniversary of Washington's Birth Commemorative issue 250th Anniversary of George Washington's Birth Obverse George Washington on horseback Lettering: GEORGE WASHINGTON LIBERTY 250TH ANNIVERSARY OF BIRTH·1982 Engraver: Elizabeth Jones Reverse Eastern facade of Washington’s home at Mount Vernon, with a heraldic eagle appearing below Lettering: UNITED STATES OF AMERICA IN GOD WE TRUST HALF DOLLAR Engraver: Elizabeth Jones Edge Reeded Mints DUnited States Mint, Denver, United States (1906-date) SUnited States Mint, San Francisco, United States (1854-date) The price includes the item, safe and secure packaging materials, postage and/or extra postage due to packaging, and other costs associated with the safe secure shipping and sale of your item, and a very small premium for me: with the promise that you will not be disappointed in your item(s).
