1 Dollar West Point Bicentennial

Authorized under the American Numismatic Association Centennial commemorative program, this dollar was struck at West Point specifically to mark the bicentennial of the U.S. Military Academy, which was established by an Act of Congress signed by John Adams on March 16, 1802. Congress authorized a maximum mintage of 500,000 across proof and uncirculated formats combined — a ceiling the Mint did not come close to reaching, leaving total sales well under half that figure.
