Ahead of tomorrow’s Citizens Coinage Advisory Committee (CCAC) meeting, candidate images of the 2025 United States Marine Corps Commemorative Coins have been released. These are the designs that the CCAC are considering for the $5 Gold Coin, $1 Silver Dollar Coin, and Half Dollar Clad Coin.
The 2025 United States Marine Corps Commemoratives are scheduled to be released early next year.
The United States Marine Corps (USMC), also referred to as the United States Marines, is the maritime land force service branch of the United States Armed Forces responsible for conducting expeditionary and amphibious operations through combined arms, implementing its own infantry, artillery, aerial, and special operations forces. The U.S. Marine Corps is one of the eight uniformed services of the United States.
The Marine Corps has been part of the U.S. Department of the Navy since 30 June 1834 with its sister service, the United States Navy. The USMC operates installations on land and aboard sea-going amphibious warfare ships worldwide. Additionally, several of the Marines’ tactical aviation squadrons, primarily Marine Fighter Attack squadrons, are embedded in Navy carrier air wings and operate from the aircraft carriers.
