History
James Madison served as the fourth President of the United States from 1809 to 1817. He is often called the 'Father of the Constitution' for his pivotal role in drafting the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights. His presidency was marked by the War of 1812.
Facts
The Presidential Dollar Coin Program, launched in 2007, aimed to honor past U.S. presidents. Each year, four different coins were released, featuring presidents in order of service. The edge-incused inscriptions, including the date and "E PLURIBUS UNUM," were a unique feature. These coins are made of a copper core clad with manganese brass.
Value Fact
Circulating versions of the James Madison dollar coin are generally valued at face value or a slight premium. Uncirculated examples from mint sets can fetch a few dollars more. Rare mint errors, such as 'mule' strikes or off-center designs, are highly sought after by collectors and can command significantly higher prices depending on their rarity and condition.
