The American Veterans Disabled for Life Silver Dollar was issued under one of the two commemorative coin programs authorized for the year 2010. The program honored members of the United States Armed Forces who made enormous personal sacrifices for their country.

The obverse of the coin shows the legs and boots of three veterans with a pair of crutches. The inscriptions include "They Stood Up For Us", "In God We Trust", "Liberty" and the date of issue "2010".

The reverse design features a forget-me-not flower at the base of a wreath, wrapped in ribbons with clusters of oak branches. The forget-me-not is widely recognized as a symbol for those who fought and became disabled in World War I. A central inscription reads "Take This Moment to Honor Our Disabled Defenders of Freedom." Additional inscriptions read "United States of America", "E Pluribus Unum", and the denomination "One Dollar".

The 2010 Disabled Veterans Silver Dollars were be produced in proof and uncirculated versions at the West Point Mint. Coins were offered for sale by the US Mint individually.
