Presidential Dollar: A Tribute to America’s Commanders-in-Chief
Launched in 2007, the Presidential Dollar Series was a groundbreaking numismatic program designed to honor each U.S. president. The U.S. Mint issued coins in the order they served from George Washington to Ronald Reagan. The series, which concluded in 2016, featured a new obverse design every few months, making it one of the most dynamic and engaging modern coin programs. With its detailed portraits, innovative edge inscriptions, and historical significance, the Presidential Dollar remains a sought-after collectible for history and coin enthusiasts.
A New Approach to U.S. Dollar Coins
The Presidential Dollar was introduced as a successor to the Sacagawea Dollar, aiming to promote wider use of dollar coins in circulation. Each coin’s obverse features a striking portrait of a U.S. president, while the reverse consistently depicts the Statue of Liberty, symbolizing the nation’s enduring values of freedom and democracy.
One of the unique features of this series is its edge lettering, which includes the year of issue, mintmark, and the motto “E PLURIBUS UNUM”—a return to a technique not commonly used since the early 19th century. Some coins were released without inscriptions due to early production errors, creating highly desirable collector’s items.
Why the Presidential Dollar Captivates Collectors
This series appeals to collectors due to its historical narrative, rotating designs, and innovative minting techniques. While intended for circulation, most Americans encountered these coins primarily in collector sets and rolls, as they were rarely used in everyday transactions.
Collector’s Playbook: What to Watch For
- Where to Find Them: They are most commonly available through U.S. Mint sets, coin dealers, and online numismatic platforms.
- Key Features: Look for sharp strikes, intact edge lettering, and missing edge inscription errors, which add extra value.
- Best Storage Practices: To preserve their brilliant finishes, keep these coins in their original Mint packaging or protective capsules.
The 2007 Presidential Dollar
Among the most sought-after coins in the series is the 2007 George Washington Dollar with missing edge lettering, commonly known as the “Godless Dollar” since it lacks the phrase “IN GOD WE TRUST.” This early production mistake led to intense collector demand, with high-grade examples commanding significant premiums.
Investment Potential in the Presidential Dollar Series
While most Presidential Dollars remain affordable, modern collectibles, error coins, and first-year issues in pristine condition have held strong value. Special finishes, such as proof and satin-finish versions, attract collectors seeking high-quality examples.
Noteworthy Releases and Scarce Varieties
- 2007 Washington “Godless Dollar” – Missing edge lettering, one of the most famous modern U.S. coin errors.
- 2009 William Henry Harrison Dollar – Popular for its connection to the shortest U.S. presidency.
- 2015 Lyndon B. Johnson Dollar – The last widely issued Presidential Dollar before production shifted to a demand-only basis.
- Notable Errors: Missing inscriptions, doubled-edged lettering, and off-center strikes are all valuable varieties.
A Numismatic Hall of Presidents
The Presidential Dollar Series serves as a chronological journey through U.S. leadership, offering collectors a tangible way to explore the nation’s history. Though the coins never achieved widespread circulation, their role in honoring America’s past leaders ensures they remain an important part of modern numismatics.
Why Buy Presidential Dollars?
The Presidential Dollar Series allows collectors to hold a piece of history—one leader at a time. Whether you seek them for their educational value, historical significance, or unique minting features, these coins stand as a modern tribute to the presidency. While their role in everyday commerce was brief, their legacy in numismatics is far more enduring.
