American Veterans Disabled for Life Commemorative Coin Act - Directs the Secretary of the Treasury to mint and issue not more than 500,000 $1 coins emblematic of the design selected by the Disabled Veterans' LIFE Memorial Foundation for the American Veterans Disabled for Life Memorial, in commemoration of disabled American veterans.

Restricts such coin issuance period to the calendar year beginning on January 1, 2010.

Requires a $10 dollar surcharge from such coin sales to be paid to the Disabled Veterans' LIFE Memorial Foundation in order to establish an endowment to support the construction of the American Veterans' Disabled for Life Memorial in Washington, D.C.

Prescribes financial assurances that require: (1) the Secretary to take such actions as may be necessary to ensure that minting and issuing the coins will not result in any net cost to the United States Government; and (2) full payment for issuance of the coins.
