The new United States Mint 2012 Infantry Soldier Silver Dollar will be released on February 16, according to the National Infantry Museum and Soldier Center.
Designing the front of the coin was United States Mint Artistic Infusion Program (AIP) Master Designer Joel Iskowitz, which displays a running infantry soldier holding his weapon. On the reverse side is the branch insignia of the infantry, represented by
two crossed rifles. That was designed by US Mint AIP Associate Designer Ronald D. Sanders.
The front of the coin was sculpted by United States Mint Sculptor-Engraver Michael Gaudioso, and the back by US Mint Sculptor-Engraver Norman E. Nemeth.
Inscriptions on the silver dollar include E Pluribus Unum, United States of America, 2012, and One Dollar.
