1 Dollar Belisarius

Belisarius — the Eastern Roman general who reconquered North Africa from the Vandals in 533–534 and briefly retook Italy from the Ostrogoths — spent his final years stripped of his command under Justinian I, likely the victim of court politics rather than any genuine treachery. Palau's collector series on historical commanders issued this alongside similar pieces on figures from antiquity, a format the mint leaned into heavily during the early 2010s.

Silver-plated copper issues of this type are prone to delamination at the edges with any handling.
