2010 US MINT PROOF SILVER DOLLAR COIN AMERICAN VETERANS DISABLED FOR LIFE IN BOX

Up for sale is a 2010-W American Veterans Disabled for Life Comm. Proof Silver Dollar w/OGP & COA.  The coin is in its original capsule, as received from the U.S. Mint.

Characteristics

The coin designs are emblematic of the many stories of our disabled veterans’ courage, loyalty and sacrifice. The obverse features an image of the legs and boots of three veterans. The inscription in the banner along the upper rim pays tribute to our courageous disabled veterans who have survived military service injuries for our freedom.

The reverse design depicts a forget-me-not flower at the base of a wreath wrapped in a ribbon that cradles and supports clusters of oak branches. The oak branches represent strength, while the forget-me-not is a widely recognized icon that first served as a reminder of those who fought and became disabled in World War I. The significance of the small blue flowers is attributable to an image conveyed by World War I soldiers who had seen them growing on the graves of comrades and allies who had been killed. After the war, the flower became the accepted symbol for commemorating those who had fallen.
