The U.S. Mint has started issuing handsome new silver dollars featuring images of the presidents in the order that they served—and this time they’re taking a fresh, contemporary approach! Beginning this year with George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, and James Madison, each coin will have large dramatic artwork (bigger than ever before) and display the Statue of Liberty on the reverse. They’ll also feature innovative edge lettering and a process to make the coins stay shinier longer. This 4-part folder is a handsome, practical way to collect those coins as they’re issued and keep them in perfect condition over the years. Done in the same specs as the very successful 50 State Quarters Collector’s Folder (more than 100,000 copies sold), The Presidential Dollar Collector’s Folder offers informative background material on the mint and the presidential coin program, as well as selected highlights of each president’s term in office.
