Owner's Description

Less than three months after the Constitution was signed, Delaware was the first state to ratify it on December 7, 1787. FAST FACT: Rhode Island refused to send delegates to the Constitutional Convention, because they said they did not want the federal government to interfere with their affairs.
The Constitution consists of the preamble, 7 articles and 26 amendments. It set up a federal system by dividing powers between the national and state governments. It established a balanced national government by dividing authority among three parts, executive, legislative, and judicial. The executive enforces laws, the legislative makes laws and the judicial explains the laws.
Mintage: 2,747,116. Population: 183. NGC Universal ID: 28PR Catalog #: KM-220. Pre-issue Price: $24.00. Regular Price: $28.00.
The Constitution Silver Dollar Commemorative had a maximum mintage of 10 million across proof and uncirculated. The proof coins were minted in San Francisco, and the Uncirculated ones were minted at Philadelphia.
The silver dollars were offered individually or as a part of a two coin or four coin set.
