The following text is from moderncommemoratives, “The 1991 Korean War Memorial Silver Dollar was issued to mark the 38th anniversary of the Korean War and to honor those who served. The oddly chosen anniversary date is the result of the division between North and South Korea at the 38th degree of latitude. The only commemorative coin of the program was the silver dollar. The obverse design depicts a soldier charging up a hill with naval ships in the foreground and two aircraft flying above. The inscriptions within the right field read “Thirty Eighth Anniversary Commemorative Korea” and “In God We Trust”. Additional inscriptions are found on the hill “1953 1991” and at the base of the coin “Liberty”. The obverse was designed by John Mercanti. Appearing on the reverse of the coin is a map of Korea with the division at the 38th parallel and the “yin and yang” in the south. An eagle’s head appears to the left of the map. Inscriptions include “One Dollar”, “E Pluribus Unum”, and “United States of America”. The reverse was designed by James T. Ferrel. A maximum authorized mintage of 1,000,000 was established for the Korean War Silver Dollar. The uncirculated version of the coin was produced at the Denver Mint and the proof version at the Philadelphia Mint. Final sales came short of achieving a sell out, but did reach more than 80% of the maximum. Surcharges raised from the commemorative program went towards the construction of the Korean War Veterans Memorial. Coin Specifications Designer: John Mercanti (obverse), James Ferrell ( reverse) Weight: 26.7300 g Composition: 90% Silver (0.7736 ounces of silver) Diameter: 38.1 mm Maximum Authorized Mintage: 1,000,000”.
Lets discuss offers: If we have make an offer enabled, please make a reasonable offer. We try to pay a fair price when we buy coins, so 30% off offers will be ignored. eBay makes more per coin when you buy it than I do. If we do not have that option enabled, please DO NOT email us about a lower price.
Lets discuss feedback: We are not perfect. When we make a mistake, we will admit to it and fix it. We respectfully request that you leave 5 star feed back to help maintain our seller fees low. Most people do not realize that 4-star seller ratings make sellers fees go up. Please consider that when leaving feedback.

When ordering multiple items, order them together to save on shipping. Multiple items ordered separately may result in your order being delayed an additional day.
All our items are 100% Authentic and genuine. We have EXTENSIVE training in counterfeit coins and currency. There is an astronomical amount of counterfeit coins out there. We have intentionally purchased coins directly from China, so that all our employees have them to reference to PREVENT buying them. These coins were used in an actual ANA counterfeit detection class, which was attended by all our employees. We have also won awards for our counterfeit display at coin shows.
Of course, grading is subjective. It is simply an opinion. You know, everyone has one. We grade strictly in accordance with the ANA Grading Standard. Our Chief Grader, Bill, finished in the top of the ANA Summer Seminar Advanced Grading Class. This class is taught by senior graders at PCGS, NGC, and ANACS. He is also an authorized dealer for these grading services.
Low Country Coins was established in 2006 by Bill, while on active duty in the U.S. Navy (now retired from active duty). Early on, we figured out that selling coins online would only work if you accurately represent your coins, offer them at a fair price, and provide excellent customer service. Now we are one of the largest online retailers of coins and currency in the US, and the largest in SC.
