Excerpt from The Commemorative Coinage of the United States: 1892 to 1922 It is our purpose, however to treat only of the commemorative and souvenir coins issued by the United States. The general public, though never wholly conversant with them, has become more familiar with these special issues on account of the number of commemorative half dollars issued in the past few years. These souvenir coins are not as well known as they should be because they were issued in limited quantities and sold at an enhanced price. In consequence, they did not pass into circulation.
