For the first time
in history, the United States Mint is honoring that Nation’s past
Chief Executives with a unique series of Presidential $1 Coins. Modeled
after the United States Mint’s popular 50 State Quarters®
Program, the series offers another systematically rotating coin design,
this one featuring former U.S. presidents. These new coins offer an
exciting way to be a part of history - use and collect them all!
Distinctive New Look
The new coins bear
a design of a former U.S. president on one side and the Statue of Liberty
on the other.
Traditional coin
inscriptions are cut into the edge of the coins, not the coin surface.
Edge-incused lettering draws attention to the inscriptions “E
Plurbus Unum,” “In God We Trust,” the date and the
mint mark, and makes them unique among today’s circulating coins.
Start
Spotting Coins in 2007
The first Presidential
$1 Coin, featuring George Washington, is now available at any teller
window. Four Presidential $1 Coins will be issued every year to at least
2016 in the order in which the president served.
Presidential
$1 Coin Sets
The sets will contain
an uncirculated coin from each Mint and will sell for $7 each.

$1 Coin Program online.
