Abstract

The article focuses on a series of "golden" one dollar presidential coins to be launched by the U.S. Mint. Government officials are using lessons learned through the failure of the Sacagawea coins in the release of the new coins. Each year the mint will issue coins of deceased presidents. They will also sell corresponding First Spouse collectibles. The Presidential $1 Coin Act of 2005, cosponsored by Representative Mike Castle of Delaware, is mentioned.
