Comment
The 1995 Olympic Baseball Half Dollar was issued as one of two commemorative half dollar coins for the Atlanta XXVI Olympiad Summer Games. This was part of a larger two year program that included half dollars, silver dollars, and $5 gold coins.The 1995 Olympic Baseball Half Dollar was produced in uncirculated and proof versions at the San Francisco Mint. The coins were offered by the US Mint individually or as part of multi-coin sets with a maximum authorized mintage of 2,000,000 coins. Like most issues of the 1995-1996 Olympic Commemorative Coin Program, this proved to be too optimistic.
