The US Commemorative Dollar Uncirculated 1995-P Civil War coin commemorates one of the most pivotal events in American history, the Civil War, which took place from 1861 to 1865. This conflict between the Northern states (Union) and the Southern states (Confederacy) was fought primarily over issues of slavery, states' rights, and the preservation of the Union.
The coin's design reflects the significance of the Civil War and pays tribute to the soldiers who fought on both sides of the conflict. It may feature iconic imagery such as soldiers in uniform, battlefield scenes, or symbols of unity and reconciliation.
The coins were minted at the Philadelphia Mint, one of the oldest operating mints in the United States. Established in 1792, the Philadelphia Mint has played a central role in producing US coins for circulation and commemorative purposes.
The mintage of the 1995-P Civil War commemorative dollar coin was determined by legislative mandate and demand from collectors. Commemorative coins like this one are issued in limited quantities to honor specific historical events or themes.
The denomination of the coin is typically one dollar, reflecting its face value in US currency. However, commemorative coins often have a higher collector value due to their limited mintage and historical significance.
In terms of condition, the 1995-P Civil War commemorative dollar coin is described as Uncirculated, indicating that it has never been used in commerce and retains its original mint luster. Uncirculated coins may exhibit minor imperfections from the minting process but are generally free from significant wear.
The Civil War, which lasted from 1861 to 1865, was one of the deadliest conflicts in American history, resulting in the loss of over 600,000 lives. It was fought primarily over the issue of slavery, with the Southern states seceding from the Union and forming the Confederate States of America in opposition to the abolitionist policies of the Northern states.
