Coins of 1983 year of issue

The history of making coins is directly related to the history of the state. It is on banknotes and coins that significant events are often reflected that have become a turning point for the economic or political development of a country.
This trend is especially evident in America. For example, on the eve of the 1984 Olympics, which was planned to be held in Los Angeles, a commemorative coin was issued in the United States of America.
It was a 1 dollar coin, completely devoted to sports topics. The design traced the desire for the classic observance of all the Olympic canons. In addition to the obligatory five rings on the front, the silhouette of a naked athlete throwing a disc was minted. The work was done by a truly jeweler - on the tiny space of the coin, the creators managed to capture even the tension of the athlete's muscles.
On the other side is the silhouette of an eagle, the symbol of America. Moreover, the sharp-billed image of an eagle is minted against a background of mountains.
The raw material for the commemorative coin was the noble silver - the 900th sample. She weighed 26.73 grams, and in diameter reached 38.1 mm.
Interestingly, this one-dollar coin was issued in large quantities. Do collectors quoted as a rare and expensive specimen.
