Representatives from the United States Mint (Mint), America’s VetDogs, and the Guide Dog Foundation joined together today to unveil the designs for the 2027 Working Dogs Commemorative Coin Program during a ceremony at the White House in Washington, DC. The designs— emblematic of the vast contributions that working dogs make in society to include the range of services that these dogs provide in detection, military service, therapy, and assistance—will be featured on a $5 gold coin, a $1 silver coin, and a half dollar clad coin, as authorized by Public Law 118-109, to support the mission of America’s VetDogs.

    I’m sure the Mint will find some way to ruin them.

    The problem will be the issue price, which will make the set unaffordable. If that doesn’t work, the mint will limit the mintage to 2,037 sets for the year of issue and auction them to the highest bidder. The mint has become collector hostile.
