wheatguy Pillar of the Community United States 1534 Posts	Posted 04/07/2010 7:25 pm Most likely you are referring to a Presidential dollar. It is legal tender, and the face value is $1, which is what it most likely is worth. Report this Post to the Staff

(the Jackson dollar dates reflect his tenure as president, not his lifespan 1767-1845). Commemorative medal: (i) Genl. Andrew Jackson (ii) Hero of New Orleans. Between 1815 and 1953. Brass commemorative medal with (i) portrait bust of General Andrew Jackson (1767-1845) in full uniform; (ii) "Hero of New Orleans" surrounded by laurel wreath Commemorative medal: (i) Major General Andrew Jackson, by Larc. (publisher/maker). 1915. Brass commemorative medal with (i) portrait bust of General Andrew Jackson in full uniform; and (ii) two fighting neoclassical figures with "Resolution Of Congress February 27, 1815 / Battle Of New Orleans / January 8, 1815 / 1915." We need pictures !! Report this Post to the Staff
