Quote: It should be noted that the law requires all coins to carry the dual date "1776-2026," yet the dollar doesn't, and I seem to be the only one bothered by that. You are not the only person bothered by that. At the very least, the mint should have added the 250 privy to the obverse.

OMG - can this possibly be true?
Circulating-Style Commemoratives (Native American $1 Coin): The 2026 Native American $1 coin features a design honoring Polly Cooper sharing corn with George Washington. Because it is categorized under a separate, ongoing commemorative program, it carries the standard single year of issuance (2026) rather than the "1776-2026" dual date.

I am bothered by that, but mostly because edge dating has always bothered me.  Quote: the 250th anniversary of the nation's founding, but the Gettysburg Address quarter doesn't meet that standard, as others and I have noted. I have to believe it is because the address specifically points to the founding and how it needed to survive this test. But I will agree that is a debatable connection.

Yeah, unless a person joins the remind me list they can release more of a product without announcing it. As of 06/21/26, 246,287 have been sold of the 271,520 mintage limit.
