Fifty-six stories, released four at a time

Congress created a multi-year program for the states, District of Columbia, and five territories, with four designs normally released each year.

A small privy mark changes with the program era, while date, mint mark, and E PLURIBUS UNUM appear on the edge. Most pieces are numismatic products rather than everyday change.

Obverse, reverse, and the details that identify the type

Confirm the major design, date, and mint mark before studying smaller die differences.

The main portrait and date

The Statue of Liberty stands as the constant national anchor, accompanied by IN GOD WE TRUST and a program privy mark.

Denomination, subject, and mint mark

Each jurisdiction receives a distinct innovation subject, inscription layout, and visual language; the shared denomination ties the series together.

Representative issues that explain the series

Collect by jurisdiction, subject, mint, or finish. A clean checklist matters because the program mixes uncirculated, proof, and reverse-proof products.
