Selena Commemorative Coin Act

This bill, titled the "Selena Commemorative Coin Act," directs the Secretary of the Treasury to mint and issue commemorative coins in 2029 to recognize and celebrate the life and accomplishments of Selena Quintanilla. The legislation authorizes the production of three types of coins: up to 50,000 $5 gold coins , up to 400,000 $1 silver coins , and up to 750,000 half-dollar clad coins . These coins will be legal tender and considered numismatic items, with designs selected by the Secretary after consultation with the Friends of the Corpus Christi Museum of Science and History, featuring an image of Selena Quintanilla and standard inscriptions. The coins will be sold at a price covering their face value, a surcharge, and the cost of design and issuance, with bulk and prepaid orders receiving discounts. Surcharges are set at $35 for gold coins, $10 for silver coins, and $5 for half-dollar coins. All surcharges collected will be paid to the Friends of the Corpus Christi Museum of Science and History to support general expenses, including museum operations and the creation of a Selena exhibit. A key provision ensures that the coin program will not result in any net cost to the Federal Government, and no funds from surcharges will be disbursed until all design and issuance costs are fully recovered by the U.S. Treasury.
