This bill, titled the National Fallen Firefighters Memorial Coin Act , directs the Secretary of the Treasury to mint and issue commemorative coins. These coins, available in $5 gold, $1 silver, and half-dollar clad denominations, will be emblematic of the National Fallen Firefighters Memorial and the dedication of firefighters throughout U.S. history. The issuance period for these limited-edition coins is set for one year, beginning January 1, 2026. The design of the coins will be chosen by the Secretary after consulting with the Commission of Fine Arts and the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation , with review by the Citizens Coinage Advisory Committee. A key provision ensures that surcharges collected from the sale of these coins will be distributed to the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation to support its vital programs and mission. Importantly, the bill stipulates that the coin program must operate at no net cost to the United States Government , with all design and issuance expenses recovered by the Treasury before any surcharges are disbursed.
