United States Mint Releases 2009 Presidential $1 Coin Uncirculated Set on April 2

WASHINGTON - Uncirculated versions of the 2009-dated coins in the Presidential $1 Coin Program will be available beginning at noon Eastern Time (ET) on April 2, 2009.   The 2009 Presidential $1 Coin Uncirculated SetTM, priced at $15.95, contains coins bearing dramatic portraits of Presidents William Henry Harrison, John Tyler, James K. Polk and Zachary Taylor on the obverses (heads side). 

The Presidential $1 Coin Uncirculated Set includes eight beautifully crafted coins - four each from the United States Mint facilities at Philadelphia (P mint mark) and Denver (D mint mark).  A protective, rotatable blister encases each coin, allowing the edge-incused inscriptions to be fully visible.  The coins are displayed in an attractive folder that includes biographical sketches and portraits of each former President. 

Featured on the reverse (tails side) of all Presidential $1 Coins is a striking rendition of the Statue of Liberty.  The inscriptions E PLURIBUS UNUM, the year 2009 and the mint mark (P or D) are edge-incused on the coins.  The inscription IN GOD WE TRUST is featured on the obverse of the Presidential $1 Coins.
