Talk:George Washington 250th Anniversary half dollar

Is "modern" correct?
The article says,
 * "The George Washington 250th Anniversary half dollar was the first modern United States commemorative coin".
 * Since there were commemorative coins made in the 1950s before this coin, is the term "modern"accurate? Is the term "modern" commonly used only for matters beginning in 1982???  Should "modern" be deleted and replaced with a specific year, like: "The Washington coin was issued in 1982, reviving the custom of issuing commemorative coins, which had been suspended for X years, following the year 195X?

 * Most numismatists divide US commemorative coins into two categories; early (everything up to 1954) and modern (everything since 1982). Prior to 1954, there were many abuses of the commemorative coin system in which beneficiaries would lobby the Mint to continue producing coins well past the time when such commemorations were meaningful.  To combat this, President Eisenhower began vetoing all new commemorative coin bills after the Carver-Washington half dollar, thereby ending the early commemorative coin era.  After nearly three decades, the Government once again allowed the Mint to produce commemorative coins under a new system in which the authorizing legislation would have to be more strict as to how many and when the coins were produced.  The system introduced in 1982 has remained relatively unchanged to this day (except for a new limit of two commemorative coin programs per year in the 1990s).  Therefore, just as the 1896 Summer Olympics are considered the first modern Olympic Games despite being over a century ago, the George Washington 250th Anniversary half dollar is considered the first modern US commemorative coin by most numismatists. -  ZLEA  T \ C 02:52, 8 January 2022 (UTC)
