Over one century ago, basketball was born in Springfield, MA. To connect with this history, the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame set up here in 1959. This is an independent, nonprofit organization that promotes, celebrates, and maintains the game of basketball for everyone. They support all teams without discriminating based on the identities of the players including whether the team is amateur or professional, and foreign or domestic. They are best known for the annual Enshrinement Ceremony that honors the game’s elite on top of their high school and collegiate competitions throughout the world. The Hall of Fame has over 400 inductees, so far.

The obverse design of the coin was chosen through a public competition. The winning design is by Justin Kunz from the US Mint Artistic Infusion Program (AIP). His design of the obverse highlights the beauty of basketball unifying athletes from many different backgrounds. There are three players all reaching for the basketball above their heads. This emphasizes how physically exerting basketball is. The background and border serve as the basketball hoop’s rim and net to give the effect of a score about to happen. 

The reverse design is by AIP artist Donna Weaver. It displays a basketball about to fall through a hoop. Inscriptions are featured on the coin regarding the face value, country, artist initials, and “E PLURIBUS UNUM”.
