Here we offer the 2011 Army Half Dollar commemorative coin in uncirculated condition.

The coins have generated interest from collectors due to their mintage of 39,461, which represents the lowest mintage for a modern commemorative half dollar. Previously, the lowest mintage was held by the uncirculated version of the 1996 Olympic Swimming Half Dollar at 49,533.

The 2011 D Army Half Dollar is one of three commemorative coins issued as part of a program to recognize and celebration the founding of the United States Army.

The coins are intended to be emblematic of the traditions, history, and heritage of the Army, and its role in American society throughout history. Specifically, the clad composition half dollar represents "service in peace".

On the obverse is a split scene featuring a solider surveying, two servicemen building a floodwall, and the Redstone Army rocket used during space exploration.  Inscriptions include "U.S. Army", "Service in Peace", "In God We Trust", "Liberty", and the date "2011".

The reverse design features a Continental solider armed with a musket. Thirteen stars appear above to represent the original states. Inscriptions include "United States of America", "First in Service to the Nation", "E Pluribus Unum", and the denomination "Half Dollar".
