We will continue showing a series called "Presidential Dollars".
The Presidential $1 Coin Program honors the former Presidents of the United States of America on a series of golden colored dollar coins.
From 2007 to 2011, the coins were struck and released for general circulation. From 2012 onwards, the Presidential Dollars have been struck only in the numbers necessary to meet demand from collectors.
The Presidential Dollars were issued at a rate of four different designs per year with three coins released in the final year. The order of issuance followed the order of the Presidencies. The coins were only issued for Presidents who had been deceased for at least two years.
Proof coins were also minted and this is the scope of this series. All are PF-70 UC graded by NGC.
The third President was Thomas Jefferson.
NGC graded 45,016 2017 Thomas Jefferson Proofs, with 9,616 as PF-70 UC.
I bought this coin in 2013 for $15.00 and today's price is around $35.00.
Prior to becoming President, Jefferson drafted the Declaration of Independence. During his term, he doubled the size of the United States with the Louisiana Purchase and commissioned Lewis & Clark to explore the new territories. He served two terms as the 3rd President of the United States from 1801-1809.
The obverse of the coin features a portrait of the President.
The reverse features a rendition of the Statue of Liberty that will be used for all Presidential Dollars.
