250th Series #12-War on Terror

Celebrate the proud history of the United States Marine Corps with this exclusive 250th Anniversary Commemorative Coin Series--Coin 12 of 12.

Following the Sept. 11, 2001,  attacks on the World Trade Center in New York City and at the Pentagon, Marines soon were sent to Afghanistan and were embroiled in conflict with radical Islamic terrorists—fighting in places such as Garmsir and Marjah. In 2003, the Marine Corps played a prominent role in the 2003 invasion of Iraq. The next year, Marines fought a counter-insugency campaign which included the Battle of Fallujah and operations in Ramadi and Al-Qa'im. Marines were instrumental in the joint fight against the Islamic State. Most recently, they were among those who assisted in the evacuation of Kabul as the United States withdrew from Afghanistan.  

250th Anniversary Commemorative Coin Series: Each coin highlights a pivotal era in the Corps’ rich heritage, honoring the valor, traditions, and legacy that have defined the Marines for centuries. Beautifully crafted, these coins are a must-have for collectors, veterans, and anyone inspired by the enduring spirit of the USMC.
