The first release of the series featuring George Washington had a mintage of more than 300 million pieces across the Philadelphia and Denver Mint facilities. After this brisk start, the mintages for subsequent issues of the Presidential Dollar program would experience a fairly steady decline. While the new $1 coin series found a welcome reception with collectors, the coins failed to achieve widespread use within commerce.
Even with production significantly curtailed from earlier levels, stockpiles of excess dollar coins began to build within Treasury vaults. The situation came to a head at the end of 2011 when the Treasury Department announced the decision to suspend production of the series for circulation.
The Presidential Dollar Program is part of an Act of Congress, enacted in 2005, which directed the United States Mint to produce $1 coins with engravings of relief portraits of U.S. Presidents on the obverse. From 2007 to 2011, presidential $1 coins were minted for circulation in large numbers, resulting in a large stockpile of unused $1 coins.

From 2012 onwards, the Presidential Dollars have not been struck for circulation and only produced in the limited numbers necessary to fulfill demand from collectors. These coins were only available within numismatic bags and rolls offered by the US mint at a premium to face value. Accordingly, mintage levels for this portion of the series are significantly lower. The lowest mintage level for the series occurred with the 2013 Woodrow Wilson release, which had 7,980,000 pieces minted across the Philadelphia and Denver facilities.

The United States Mint honors 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 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.
From 2007 to 2016, the Mint issued four Presidential $1 Coins per year, each with a common reverse design featuring a striking rendition of the Statue of Liberty. The composition of the Presidential $1 Coins is identical to that of the Sacagawea Golden Dollar and the Native American $1 Coins.
