$2.50 for America’s 250th Act

This bill would create a new $2.50 coin to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. The Department of the Treasury would have to mint and release these coins only if it determines that doing so is technically possible and not too expensive. The bill describes what the coin should look like for the first five years, but after that, the Treasury could choose new designs that celebrate the founding of the United States. The Treasury could also make special collectible versions of the $2.50 coin in silver, gold, and other metals.
