In news that will be of extreme interest to collectors, the United States Mint has firmed up the release dates for several product options due out the first quarter of 2010. Most notably among these are the highly anticipated Boy Scouts of America Commemorative Dollars in both proof and uncirculated conditions.
The Mint had previously sketched a March release for the coins and that is holding true with the exact date of March 23, 2010 now showing on the Mint's website. The commemorative silver dollars are already stirring up quite a bit of interest, not only among the average collector, but also by those who are, or have been, involved in the Scouting organization.
Another pair of commemorative silver dollars are also making their appearance early in the year. Due out on the 25th of February are the American Veterans Disabled for Life Silver Dollars.
Missing from the first three months are any coins from the America the Beautiful Quarters Program which launches this year. It appears the first coin in this series (Hot Springs National Park Quarter) will not be seen until April.

- January 22 - 2010 Native American $1 Coin 25-Coin Roll, Philadelphia
