Today is the last day to purchase the Louis Braille Bicentennial Silver Dollar. You may buy it directly from the US Mint for $33.95. Standard shipping costs $4.95, however you must select expedited to guarantee a Christmas delivery. The Louis Braille Commemorative Silver Dollar is the first United States coin to feature tactile, readable braille. All sales must be made before 5:00 PM eastern time.

I have purchased several of these over the past year, and they are very much worth the price. I would particularly recommend the Braille Education set which sells for $44, but provides a handsome display for the coin along with print and Braille explaining the coin and Braille.
