 To require the Secretary of the Treasury to mint coins in recognition 
           and celebration of the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

    Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the 
United States of America in Congress assembled,

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Pro Football Hall of Fame 
Commemorative Coin Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    The Congress finds the following:
            (1) The Pro Football Hall of Fame's mission is--
                    (A) to honor individuals who have made outstanding 
                contributions to professional football;
                    (B) to preserve professional football's historic 
                documents and artifacts;
                    (C) to educate the public regarding the origin, 
                development, and growth of professional football as an 
                important part of American culture; and
                    (D) to promote the positive values of the sport.
            (2) The Pro Football Hall of Fame opened its doors on 
        September 7, 1963. On that day a charter class of 17 players, 
        coaches, and contributors were enshrined. Among the group were 
        such legends as Sammy Baugh, Red Grange, George Halas, Don 
        Hutson, Bronko Nagurski, and Jim Thorpe. Through 2012, there 
        are 273 members who have been elected to the Pro Football Hall 
        of Fame. Three distinct iconic symbols represent an 
        individual's membership in the Hall of Fame: a bronze bust, a 
        Hall of Fame gold jacket, and a Hall of Fame ring.
            (3) The Pro Football Hall of Fame has welcomed nearly 9 
        million visitors from around the world since opening in 1963. 
        The museum has grown from its original 19,000-square-foot 
        building to an 118,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art facility 
        as result of expansions in 1971, 1978, 1995, and most recently 
        in 2011-2013. In addition, major exhibit renovations have been 
        completed in 2003, 2008, and 2009.
            (4) The Pro Football Hall of Fame houses the world's 
        largest collection on professional football. Included in the 
        museum's vast collection are more than 20,000 three-dimensional 
        artifacts and more than 20 million pages of documents including 
        nearly 3,000,000 photographic images.
            (5) The Pro Football Hall of Fame reaches a world-wide 
        audience of nearly 15,000,000 people annually through visitors 
        to the museum, participants in the annual Pro Football Hall of 
        Fame Enshrinement Festival, three nationally televised events, 
        the Hall of Fame's Web site, social media outlets, special 
        events across the country, and through the museum's Educational 
        Outreach videoconferencing programs.
