Description

The 2007 (P) Presidential Dollar - John Adams, Position A, struck at the Philadelphia Mint, is part of the Presidential Dollars 2007 to Date collection. The U.S. Mint's 112.4 million total for the 2007 (P) John Adams dollar counts both edge orientations combined, so the number with the Position A edge is unknown. The obverse features rotating portraits of each U.S. president in order of service, released four per year and the reverse displays the Statue of Liberty. The second President (1797–1801), John Adams was a key architect of American independence who helped draft the Declaration of Independence and served as the nation's first Vice President. He was the first president to live in the White House and the father of sixth president John Quincy Adams. Inaugural year of the Presidential Dollar Program, honoring Washington, Adams, Jefferson, and Madison. The "Godless Dollar" error — coins struck without the edge-incused motto IN GOD WE TRUST — generated national headlines and collector frenzy. Struck in 88.5% copper, 6% zinc, 3.5% manganese and 2% nickel, weighing 8.1 grams, 26.5 mm in diameter, with a lettered edge. Cataloged as PCGS #148054.
