In 1990, a distant invasion in Kuwait set events in motion that would call hundreds of thousands of American service members to the deserts of the Middle East. Operation Desert Storm became the first major conflict of the post-Cold War era - fought beneath a relentless desert sun, across unfamiliar terrain and amid sandstorms and uncertainty. It also marked the largest coalition military effort since World War II. And now, with this collection of Desert Storm Proof coins, you can commemorate the 35th anniversary of this pivotal moment in history and remember the sleepless nights, desert winds, heavy gear, unbreakable bonds and the pride of mission accomplished. Introducing the Desert Storm Veterans 35th Anniversary Proof Coin Collection, available exclusively from The Bradford Exchange Mint. This collection begins with Issue One, The Desert Storm 35th Anniversary. Soon, your collection will continue with Issue Two, followed by Issue Three, The Deluxe Display Case - a $70 value, yours for the same low price as a single issue, Issue Four and additional Desert Storm 35th anniversary coins, each a separate issue to follow.‡

Intended as collector's items, each commemorative coin in this collection is proudly made in the U.S.A. at America's oldest private mint, offered in coveted Proof condition and richly plated in 99.9% silver. The fronts feature full-color imagery honoring our Gulf War veterans, enhanced with selectively colored accents inspired by the Desert Storm service ribbon. On the back of each Proof coin, a sculpted 35th anniversary emblem appears alongside the statement "DEFENDING FREEDOM". Your coins arrive sealed in crystal-clear capsules to preserve their beauty and value for years to come. Plus, the Deluxe Display Case, arriving as Issue Three, provides the perfect way to store and show off your collection. These Proof coins also make an impressive military gift for Desert Storm veterans, coin collectors and history buffs alike. We are proud financial supporters of the families of those taken prisoners of war or remain missing in action and the loved ones of those who have made immense sacrifices in service to our country thanks to customers who encourage us to do so.
