New Madison Presidential Dollars Circulating

0

The final Presidential $1 coin for the year is now hitting general circulation through banks and other financial institutions. However, you can buy these coin rolls and bags directly from the U.S. Mint. Just minutes ago the James Madison Presidential $1 Coins officially entered into circulation and are available at U.S. banks and other financial institutions.

The Madison Dollar is the fourth and last presidential coin released this year.

Madison is known as the Father of the Constitution. Having heard himself referenced that way, Madison protested by saying the Constitution was not "the off-spring of a single brain," but "the work of many heads and many hands."

The Mint press release regarding the availability date of Madison circulating coins sited an excellent excerpt from one of his many writings:

“The happy union of these States is a wonder:  their Constitution a miracle:  their example the hope of Liberty throughout the World.”

Finding the James Madison $1 coins in banks or circulation could be difficult…

Here are direct links to each with their prices:
