US Mint to release baseball coins

In honor of the National Baseball Hall of Fame's 75th anniversary the United States Mint will produce coins with a baseball on one side, and a glove on the other. What makes these coins special is that they are curved, a first in US Mint history. The baseball bulges outwards while the glove is drawn inwards. They will be issued in five, one, and half-dollar denominations. The five dollar gold coin will be sold for thirty-five dollars and have a production run of 50,000, the silver dollar coin will be sold for ten dollars each and produced 400,000 times, and the half dollar copper coin will have 750,000 coins in circulation by the end of production. The copper coins will go on sale for five dollars. The coins will go on sale in 2014. These will be great collectibles and unique pieces of US and baseball history.
