Commemorative Coins for US Foreign Service: Supporting Diplomacy

This act introduces new commemorative coins to honor the U.S. Foreign Service and its contributions to diplomacy. Sales of these coins aim to raise funds for an organization dedicated to diplomatic history, without burdening the national budget. Citizens will have the opportunity to purchase these coins, thereby supporting the diplomatic heritage of the USA.
Key points
Three types of commemorative coins will be minted: $5 gold coins, $1 silver coins, and half-dollar clad coins.
The coins will be available for purchase only for a one-year period, starting January 1, 2029.
A surcharge from each coin sale will be paid to the Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training, which preserves U.S. diplomatic history.
The program is designed to incur no net cost to the U.S. Government, with all expenses covered by coin sales.
