| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse depicts a close view of the Statue of Liberty's raised right hand grasping a flaming torch, rendered in bold relief against a radiant background. Surrounding the central design are excerpts from Emma Lazarus's celebrated sonnet The New Colossus, reading GIVE ME YOUR TIRED, YOUR POOR, YOUR HUDDLED MASSES YEARNING TO BREATH FREE. The legend UNITED STATES OF AMERICA arcs along the upper border, while the denomination ONE DOLLAR appears along the lower border. The national motto E PLURIBUS UNUM is inscribed within the field, along with the engravers' initials MP and JM. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The 1986 Statue of Liberty dollar was the centerpiece of a three-coin commemorative program authorized by Congress to fund restoration of both the Statue and Ellis Island. The fundraising effort, managed by the Statue of Liberty-Ellis Island Foundation, ultimately raised over $500 million — far exceeding the restoration budget — making it one of the most financially successful commemorative coin programs in U.S. history.
Legislation capped production and directed surcharges directly to the Foundation rather than the general treasury, a funding mechanism that became the template for nearly every subsequent U.S. commemorative issue.
