Comment

The 1996 Olympic High Jump Silver Dollar was as a slate of sixteen different coins to commemorate the Centennial Olympic Games held in Atlanta, Georgia. The program included coins minted in copper nickel clad, silver, and gold, released from 1995 to 1996.

The 1996 High Jump Silver Dollar was released in both proof and uncirculated versions. These were sold individually or as part of multi-coin sets created by the United States Mint. The maximum authorized mintage across all product options was a lofty 1,000,000 coins, which was not attained. The lower mintage of several of the 1995-1996 Olympic Commemorative Coin programs now drive significant premiums on the secondary market.
