The Susan B. Anthony and Sacagewea dollar coins never caught on with Americans. Now the ever-bored U.S. Mint is preparing to release new golden dollar coins. This time, they’re going to have faces of the U.S. presidents.
The plan calls for four presidents to release per year, much like the state quarters, which release five states each year. Soon, Americans can have a coin with the face of their favorite president, like in 2012, you’ll get the faces of Chester A. Arthur, Grover Cleveland, Benjamin Harrison and Grover Cleveland again.
According to the U.S. Mint, the final president will be engraved in 2016, the last pick? None other than beloved president Richard M. Nixon. He will have the entire year to himself. This blog is not making that up.
