National Park Anniversaries-Great American Spaces Commemorative Coin Act
Summary
This bill would authorize the U.S. Treasury to produce and sell special edition silver commemorative coins honoring National Parks that are celebrating significant anniversaries of their founding. These coins would be designed to celebrate the history of America’s "Great American Spaces" and would be available for purchase by collectors and the general public.
The legislation includes specific financial safeguards to ensure that the coin program operates at no cost to taxpayers. To protect the federal budget, the Treasury would be prohibited from minting the coins until it has received full payment or a guaranteed security from a bank to cover all production expenses. Proceeds from the sale of these coins are typically used to support the preservation and maintenance of the National Park System.
