Which law authorized special circulating coins for the United States Semiquincentennial?

The Circulating Collectible Coin Redesign Act of 2020 authorized special circulating coins for the United States Semiquincentennial.

The act created authority for redesigned circulating coins associated with the 250th anniversary of American independence. It also authorized other coin programs, including the American Women Quarters Program and later planned circulating commemorative issues.

The law received unanimous support in both the Senate and the House of Representatives. President Donald Trump signed it in 2021, after the bill had been introduced by Representative Barbara Lee of California.

The act is often confused with the later date of the signing or with the broader America250 initiative. The legislation itself was passed in 2020; its semiquincentennial coin designs were produced for 2026.
