Working Dog Commemorative Coin Act

The Working Dog Commemorative Coin Act became Public Law 118-109 on November 25, 2024. The bill directs the Treasury to mint up to 50,000 $5 gold coins, 500,000 $1 silver coins, and 750,000 half-dollar clad coins in 2027, with surcharges benefiting America's VetDogs. This is a commemorative coin authorization, not a spending bill—no taxpayer funds are appropriated. The Treasury covers minting costs through coin sales. No public companies are involved in production or distribution; the U.S. Mint handles manufacturing. There is no convergence with other legislative signals or procurement actions. The bill's impact on markets is negligible.
