1987-P Constitution $1 Silver Commem BU (w/Box & COA)
In 1987, the United States marked the bicentennial of its foundational governing document with a special silver dollar. Originally adopted on September 17, 1787, the U.S. Constitution has served as the bedrock of the nation for centuries. This commemorative coin, struck at the Philadelphia Mint, contains 0.7734 troy ounces of silver and carries the full backing of the United States government. The obverse of this brilliant uncirculated coin captures the very act of creation, displaying a classic quill pen alongside a sheaf of parchment. The famous opening phrase, "WE THE PEOPLE", is prominently inscribed across this side, serving as a powerful reminder of the nation's democratic origins. On the reverse, the design shifts from the document itself to the diverse generations it has protected. It features a cross-section of American citizens from different eras, illustrating a wide range of lifestyles and backgrounds united under a single constitutional framework. This side also incorporates the traditional national motto "E PLURIBUS UNUM" alongside the denomination of one dollar.
