The Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame is located in Springfield, Massachusetts, the birthplace of basketball. Founded to honor the individuals who have made lasting contributions to the sport, the Hall recognizes legendary players, coaches, referees, and other influential figures. Its modern building is known for its large metallic sphere, which overlooks the Connecticut River and has become a recognizable part of the city’s skyline. Inside, visitors can explore exhibits that highlight basketball’s history, view memorabilia from every era, and learn how the game grew from a simple invention into an international sport. This commemorative release celebrates the 60th anniversary of the Hall of Fame, which was named after Dr. James Naismith, the inventor of basketball and a key figure in the game’s early development.

All 2020-P $1 Colorized Proof Basketball HOF Silver Coins offered here come with protective flips. Each coin features a concave obverse and a domed reverse, creating a layered appearance that adds depth to the overall design. Selective colorization is applied on the reverse to enhance specific details without overwhelming the artwork.

The obverse of the 2020-P Colorized Basketball Hall of Fame Silver Coin shows several basketball players positioned under the hoop as they prepare to rebound the ball. The design captures the intensity of play beneath the basket, with figures reaching upward as the ball comes down. A subtle net pattern appears in the background, and the concave shape of the field helps bring a sense of motion and dimension to the scene.

On the reverse of the 2020-P $1 Colorized Basketball Hall of Fame Silver Coin is a close-up view of a basketball dropping toward the rim. This side features selective colorization, with the rim shown in a familiar red-orange shade and the net highlighted in white. The domed field gives the image added depth, making the ball appear suspended in midair.
