WASHINGTON–The United States Mint recently launched the Presidential $1 Coin Program—a new series of circulating $1 coins featuring former presidents in the order they served. The first coin in the series, the George Washington $1 Coin, arrived at U.S. financial institutions and retailers and in the hands of consumers Feb. 15. The newest Presidential $1 Coin, featuring Thomas Jefferson, will go into circulation Aug. 16. In preparation for the expected consumer demand, retail merchants and financial institutions may begin pre-ordering the new Thomas Jefferson $1 Coin on Aug. 2. The coin will be available in unmixed quantities until Sept. 13. Promotional materials are available free of charge at www.usmint.gov/$1coin.
