BASKETBALL HALL OF FAME

Commemorative Curved Silver Proof

Celebrating the game of Basketball and the 60th anniversary of the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame US Mint issued this commemorative curved silver coin in 2020, which was quickly sold out.

Obverse: The design portrays the intense, hands-on action of the game-the constant struggle for possession of the ball and the skill required to overcome the opponent and put the ball through the hoop. The design features three different figures all reaching for the ball in unison, suggesting how the sport has brought together millions of diverse people around the world through a simple, universal, and unifying athletic experience. Their arms are intentionally elongated, just slightly, to emphasize the full exertion of physical and mental effort required to excel in the game. The rim and net are presented as subtle background elements to complement the primary figures. Inscriptions are “LIBERTY”, “IN GOD WE TRUST”, the year of issue “2020”, and Pennsylvania Mint "P" mark. 

Reverse depicts a basketball about to pass through a net, with the inscriptions “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA”, “E PLURIBUS UNUM”, and denomination “ONE DOLLAR”.

The bouncing of the ball. The satisfying swish of a perfect shot. The blaring of the buzzer and roar of the crowds. The game of basketball has excited players and fans for more than 125 years. This fast-paced game was invented on December 21, 1891, by Dr. James Naismith. From its humble roots in a gymnasium, the game has grown into a global phenomenon, embraced by players and fans around the world. Today, the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame carries on Naismith’s vision for his game of “basket ball.”
