2014-P $1 Civil Rights Act Silver Commem - BU

Struck to honor the 50th anniversary of one of the most transformative laws in American history, the 2014-P Civil Rights Act Silver Dollar pays tribute to the courage and struggle of those who fought for equality. Minted in Philadelphia, the Brilliant Uncirculated (BU) version features a satin-like finish and strong relief that enhances the symbolism of unity and justice.

Historical Insight:

The Civil Rights Act of 1964 marked a turning point in American society, ending legalized racial segregation and discrimination in public spaces, employment, and education. Signed into law by President Lyndon B. Johnson, the Act was the culmination of generations of activism. This commemorative coin recognizes the enduring significance of that legislation and those who championed it.

With a mintage of just 24,720, the 2014-P BU Civil Rights Act Silver Dollar is among the lowest-mintage modern BU commemoratives, making it especially attractive to collectors of civil rights, legal milestones, and low-population U.S. Mint issues. Its subject matter ensures lasting relevance and meaning in any historical or thematic coin collection.
