A 2001 commemorative program was created to create funds for the United States Capitol Preservation Commission and resulted in the 2001 Capitol Visitor Center half dollar commemorative program.

The obverse design of the coin consist of the North Wing of the original Capitol superimposed on an outline of the present building. A horse drawn carriage appears in front and a circle of stars surround. The inscriptions read "Liberty", "In God We Trust", "U.S. Capitol", and the dates "1800" and "2001".

The reverse features an arrangement of inscriptions in different fonts and a circle of 16 stars, representing the 16 states that existed in 1800. The central inscriptions read "1800 / 6th Congress / Senate 32 Senators / House 106 Members / E Pluribus Unum". Inscriptions around the outer edge of the coin read "United States of America" and "Half Dollar".

The US Mint produced the coins in proof and uncirculated versions at the Philadelphia Mint. The coins were offered individually in regular packaging or simple mailers, as part of the 3 Coin Proof Set, and within a specially packaged Collector Set including only the uncirculated half dollar.
