The 1994 Prisoner of War Silver Dollar was issued to honor Americans who endured captivity in wartime and to support the National Prisoner of War Museum at Andersonville. Authorized under the United States Veterans Commemorative Coin Act of 1993, the coin pairs unusually forceful imagery with a clear memorial purpose, from the eagle breaking free on the obverse to the museum depicted on the reverse. Struck in proof and uncirculated finishes, it remains one of the most weighty and meaningful modern U.S. commemoratives.
