The United States Foreign Service Commemorative Coin Act proposes the minting of special coins to recognize the significant contributions of the Foreign Service to United States diplomacy. This legislation requires the Secretary of the Treasury to issue gold, silver, and clad half-dollar coins during a one-year period starting January 1, 2029. The designs for these coins will be emblematic of diplomacy's importance and the Foreign Service's role, selected after consultation with relevant bodies. The bill specifies the denominations and maximum mintage limits for each coin type: $5 gold coins (up to 50,000), $1 silver coins (up to 400,000), and half-dollar clad coins (up to 750,000). These coins will be sold at a price covering their face value, production costs, and a surcharge. A key provision ensures that the minting and issuance of these coins will result in no net cost to the United States Government . Surcharges collected from the sale of these commemorative coins, specifically $35 for gold, $10 for silver, and $5 for half-dollar coins, will be paid to the Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training . This funding is intended to support the collection, curation, and sharing of United States diplomatic history. However, these funds will only be disbursed after the total costs of designing and issuing all authorized coins have been fully recovered by the U.S. Treasury.
