The United States is honoring our Nation's Presidents by issuing $1 coins featuring their images in the order that they served, The Program began in 2007 with Presidents Washington, Adams, Jefferson and Madison. (Note: In December 2011,Secretary of the Treasury Timothy F. Geithner directed that the United States Mint suspend minting and issuing circulating Presidential $1 Coins. Regular circulating demand for the coins will be met through the Federal Reserve Bank’s existing inventory of circulating coins minted prior to 2012. The United States Mint will continue to offer several products that contain Presidential $1 Coins.)
The Presidential $1 Coin Act (Public Law 109-145) seeks to revitalize the design of United States coins and return circulating coinage to its position as an object of aesthetic beauty in its own right. Accordingly, the Presidential $1 Coins feature larger, more dramatic artwork, as well as edge-incused inscriptions of the year of minting or issuance, E PLURIBUS UNUM and the mint mark.
Each coin has a common reverse design featuring a striking rendition of the Statue of Liberty. These coins feature large, dramatic artwork and edge-incused inscriptions of the year of minting, or issuance, E PLURIBUS UNUM and the mint mark. The inscription IN GOD WE TRUST appears on the face of the coins. The size, weight and metal composition of the Presidential $1 Coins are identical to that of the Native American $1 Coins.
