Commems Collection Modern: US Commemorative Coins With Stars - Part I (1983-1991)

I've previously posted an Index for quick access to the posts I've made about classic-era US commemorative coins that feature stars in their designs - the posts were made over in the "Post Your..." Gallery threads.

You can access that "classic" Index here: Classic US Commemorative Coins with Stars.

I'm back with another "Stars" index, but this time it is populated with links to modern-era US commemorative coins. This is the first of three or four eventual indices for this group, this one has a focus on the period 1982-1991 - the first 10 years of the modern series.

1. 1983 Los Angeles Olympics - Silver Dollar
2, 1984 Los Angeles Olympics - Gold Eagle
3. 1986 Statue of Liberty - Gold Half Eagle
4. 1987 US Constitution Bicentennial
5a. 1989 US Congress Bicentennial - Half Dollar

8. 1991 Korea Memorial (38th Anniversary)

For each of the coins indexed above, I have tried to go beyond what is found in the reference books and present a more in-depth discussion of their stars and what they represent.

Make sure to scroll around a bit in the "Post Yours..." thread as many interesting coins from around the world have been posted and are worth a look.
