Representatives from the United States Mint, the United States Marine Corps (USMC), and the Marine Corps Heritage Foundation joined together on Wednesday, July 17, 2024, to unveil the designs for the 2025 United States Marine Corps 250th Anniversary Commemorative Coin Program during a ceremony at the National Museum of the Marine Corps in Triangle, Virginia near Marine Corps Base (MCB) Quantico. The designs will be featured on a $5 gold coin, a $1 silver coin, and a half dollar clad coin, as authorized by Public Law 118-10 (PDF link), to support the mission of the Marine Corps Heritage Center.
“Each coin in the 2025 U.S. Marine Corps 250th Anniversary Program reflects the deep appreciation for the Marine Corps from a forever grateful Nation,” remarked Kristie McNally, the Mint’s Deputy Director. “We are incredibly thankful for every active Marine, veteran, and the families who support them. It is our privilege to connect America to the profound legacy of the United States Marine Corps.”

If forced to choose, I would take door #2.
prefer swapping silver and gold designs
iwo jima ought to look great in proof
I can’t believe they are putting a rifle of that type on a coin. I like
Martin
Do they realize that they have already issued that same dollar coin before?
Half dollar, meh. The other two aren't bad though. Certainly better than most of the garbage the mint produces.
No crayons?
Throw a coin enough times, and suppose one day it lands on its edge.
Kind of sad and pathetic ain’t it?
Having fun while switching things up and focusing on a next level PCGS slabbed 1950+ type set, while still looking for great examples for the 7070.
The Mint always unveils its commemorative designs in 'Line Art' format.
I doubt we will see the renderings until early 2025.(Please correct me if I'm wrong)
