On Jan. 24, the U.S. Mint will release curved-shape Apollo 11 50th Anniversary Commemorative Coins composed from gold, silver or clad and struck in collector qualities of proof and uncirculated. (See images of the coins.) The Mint will also issue a set containing a proof Apollo 11 half-dollar and an enhanced reverse proof Kennedy half-dollar that commemorates the relationship between President Kennedy and the American space program. 

Prices of the products and their limits are:

  Introductory Price Mintage Limit Product Limit Household Order Limit
2019-W Proof $5 Gold Coin * 50,000 None 1
2019-W Uncirculated $5 Gold Coin 1
2019-P Proof Silver Dollar $54.95 400,000 100
2019-P Uncirculated Silver Dollar $51.95 100

2019-D Uncirculated Clad Half Dollar $25.95 None
2019-S Proof Half Dollar Set $53.95 100,000 5
2019-P Proof $1 Five Ounce Silver Coin $224.95 100,000 None 5

 

*Prices for the gold coins will be available the day before their release and based on the trending value of gold. Based on gold’s current price of about $1,290 an ounce, today the proof $5 gold would be $418.75 and the uncirculated $5 gold coin would be $408.75.

Prices include surcharges of $50 per 5-ounce silver dollar, $35 per gold coin, $10 per silver dollar, and $5 per half-dollar. Provided the coins turn a profit, the collected funds will be shared between the Smithsonian Institution’s National Air and Space Museum’s Destination Moon exhibition; the Astronauts Memorial Foundation; and the Astronaut Scholarship Foundation.

As discussed last week, the U.S. Mint and the Royal Australian Mint are collaborating on a special set featuring a U.S. Apollo 11 half dollar paired with an Australian Moon Landing 1 oz. $5 Silver Coin. Its price, release date, and limits are not yet available.
