The U.S. Mint has expanded their Circulating $1 Coin Direct Ship Program. This program makes it easy for retailers, financial institutions, and other interested parties to obtain smaller quantities of $1 coins than can otherwise be obtained from the Federal Reserve.
The $1 Coin Direct Ship Program provides individualized service to the financial community and other interested parties who wish to acquire $1 coins at face value in smaller quantities than currently available to financial institutions.
The circulating Presidential $1 Coins will be available in 25-coin rolls packaged in quantities of 10 rolls per box, priced at $250 face value. The coins will not be separated by mint mark. Customers may order up to 500 $1 coins (two boxes) within any given Presidential $1 Coin issuance period.
Originally started on 11 June 2008 the program was limited to John Quincy Adams dollar coins which quickly sold out.
On 21 August 2008 the program was expanded to include Presidential dollar coins for:
- George Washington
- John Adams
- Thomas Jefferson
- James Madison
- James Monroe
- John Quincy Adams
- Andrew Jackson
All are now sold out with the exception of Andrew Jackson who’s dollars coins are still available at face value. Get them while you can folks!
