2005-P Marines Silver Dollar

When these proud 90% silver dollars rolled off the presses in 2005, the military cheered. Now, the United States Marine Corps commemorative can land in your collection! Honoring the 230th anniversary of the establishment of the Marine Corps in 1775, and struck for one year only, these coins marked the first time the U.S. Mint honored a branch of the military with an official U.S. commemorative coin.
