1) United States Mint (Official Source)
The U.S. Mint is the authorized government agency that issues official U.S. commemorative coins — including those celebrating the Semiquincentennial (America 250). Their special Semiquincentennial Coins & Medals page showcases all official releases tied to the 250th anniversary, including commemorative coins and collectible sets. You can purchase directly from the U.S. Mint online shop once they’re released.

On the Mint site you’ll find:
-
Official America 250 coin programs
-
Special collectible sets
-
Updated release dates and pricing
-
Shipping and authentication details
(all directly from the U.S. Mint)
👉 Always buy directly from the U.S. Mint for the official semiquincentennial coins to avoid counterfeits or unofficial reproductions.
🪙 Secondary Market Options (Collectibles & Older Coins)
If the official America 250 coins sell out or you want collectible versions, you can also find limited commemorative coins (not always official U.S. Mint issues) on reputable coin dealer sites such as:
Littleton Coin Company — offers classic and themed 250th anniversary coins and collectibles (not the official semiquincentennial coin but patriotic themed).
⚠️ Important: Third-party marketplace coins (like themed pieces on Amazon or eBay) might be collector or souvenir coins — not official U.S. Mint legal-tender coins. Examples include colorized anniversary pieces that feature semiquincentennial themes but are not government-issued currency.
📌 Tips for Buying America 250 Coins
✅ Sign up for U.S. Mint emails — so you get release notices directly when new commemorative semiquincentennial coins go on sale.
✅ Order early — Commemorative coins often sell out fast once released.
✅ Check product details — Official coins come with certificates of authenticity from the U.S. Mint.
✅ Avoid unverified sellers — Only purchase from the U.S. Mint or trusted coin dealers to ensure authenticity.
