Roberto Clemente Commemorative Coin Act
This bill authorizes the U.S. Mint to produce commemorative coins honoring Roberto Clemente, a Hall of Fame baseball player and humanitarian, including $5 gold, $1 silver, and half-dollar coins. The coins, to be minted between January 1, 2027, and December 31, 2027, will feature designs reflecting Clemente's baseball career and activism, with surcharges funding the Roberto Clemente Foundation's youth sports, education, and disaster relief programs. The foundation will receive all surcharges ($5-$35 per coin) to support its mission, while the coins themselves are legal tender. This procedural bill does not create new policy but commemorates Clemente's legacy through a limited coin issuance.
