Known as U.S. Innovation dollars, these $1 coins celebrate significant American innovations and innovators from each of the 50 states, the District of Columbia and five U.S. Territories.

After the initial 2018 issue, four new designs are released each year from 2019-2032. These coins honor an innovator or innovation from each of the 50 states, the District of Columbia and the five U.S. territories of Puerto Rico, Guam, American Samoa, the U.S. Virgin Islands and the Northern Mariana Islands. Like the Statehood quarters, Innovation coins will be issued for the 50 states first, in the order the states ratified the Constitution or joined the Union. The District of Columbia and American territory issues will then follow.
New Golden Dollar Coins with a New Liberty Design
U.S. Innovation dollars share some features with Native American and Presidential dollars. First, Innovation dollars are "golden" in color. This distinctive and eye-catching hue is due to their composition – manganese brass over a pure copper core. And like other "golden" $1 coins, these bear edge inscriptions for the date, mint mark and motto e pluribus unum. Plus, they are seldom seen in circulation. Like Native American and Presidential dollars, Innovation dollar coins are struck in limited quantities for collectors only.
Exciting and Educational Series for All Ages
U.S. Innovation dollars are perfect for collectors of any age. The series offers an abundance of educational opportunities, highlighting U.S. ingenuity, inventions, achievements and individuals who helped shape the world in which we live. Collecting the series can be a fun and exciting way to learn more about both science and America – as well as a great way to bring generations together to share stories from our nation's history.
