Key Points
- Congress would require the Treasury Department to make special Roberto Clemente commemorative coins in 2027.
- Up to 3 types could be sold: a $5 gold coin (50,000 max), a $1 silver coin (400,000 max), and a half-dollar coin (750,000 max).
- Buyers would pay the coin’s face value plus minting costs and an extra fee; that extra fee would go to the Roberto Clemente Foundation.
- The coins must include Clemente’s name, “2027,” and designs that honor his baseball career and human rights work, with at least one design showing his image.
- The bill says the program should not cost taxpayers money overall, and the foundation only gets funds after Treasury recovers its costs.
