The 2016 Mark Twain Silver Dollar was one of two coins issued to commemorate American author and humorist Mark Twain. The silver dollar designs make reference to many of the author’s literary works.
The coins went on sale February 1, 2016, which was more than two weeks late. The delay was due to an error in the certificates of authenticity originally printed for the silver dollar, which incorrectly attributed Huck and Jim to one of Twain’s other famous novels The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. The Mint decided to delay the offering in order to print corrected certificates.
