As we look
to celebrate America’s Independence Day, share your love of history with a
keepsake of one of American’s great organizations—the Girl Scouts of the USA
Commemorative Silver Dollar. For the
first time ever, the Girl Scouts has a commemorative coin, one of only two
commemorative coin programs from the United States Mint this year, and the
first dedicated to a girls’ organization.
It’s a fresh gift idea that both inspires and pays tribute to a piece of
history—over 100 years of the premier girls’ leadership organization. President
Obama himself signed the legislation authorizing minting of the coin after passage
in the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate.
This beautiful coin features three girls of different ages and
backgrounds on the heads side, and on the reverse side it
shows the Girl Scouts’ 100th Anniversary logo, along with the inscription COURAGE, CONFIDENCE, CHARACTER (from
the Girl Scouts mission to “build girls of courage, confidence, and character,
who make the world a better place”). See more about the coin at www.girlscouts.org.
