United States of America, 1989 (200th Anniversary of Congress) Silver Proof Dollar
In 1989 the American Congress celebrated its Bicentennial or 200th anniversary. The American Congress like our Parliament has two divisions, but unlike ours both of their houses are elected. The senior one is the Senate and the junior one is the House of Representatives. The US Mint issued a special silver dollar to honour the 200th anniversary of Congress. It has the Statue of Freedom in the clouds and sunburst on the obverse. The reverse has the Mace from the House of Representatives. These Special Silver Dollars are struck in Proof 900 fine Silver and are priced to tempt you, but supplies are limited. Supplied in protective capsule
