Coin Bills: 2009-2010
The U.S. House of Representative and the U.S. Senate propose a number of bills each year that relate to American coins — existing, bullion and gold and silver commemoratives. Most coin bills simply die from inaction in either of the chambers. A few make their way through the House and Senate, and get signed into law by the President. The following list provides the legislation that has been introduced between 2009 and 2010. Rows in green indicate the coin bill has become law. Pink colored rows indicate similar legislation has been brought before both the House and Senate.
