US Mint Introduces Rolls And Bags Of Connecticut American Innovation $1 Coins On September 29
2020, September 29
US Mint - The United States Mint (Mint) will open sales for Connecticut American Innovation™ $1 Coins packaged in collectible rolls and bags beginning on September 29 at noon EDT. These new additions to the Mint's product lineup contain uncirculated $1 coins from the Philadelphia and Denver facilities. Available product options and pricing are below.
The reverse (tails) of the Connecticut American Innovation $1 Coin depicts the Gerber Variable Scale being used to increase a geometric shape by 200%, a shape which resembles the state of Connecticut. Inscriptions are "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," "GERBER VARIABLE SCALE," and "CONNECTICUT." The year of minting ("2020"), mint mark ("P" or "D"), and the inscription "E PLURIBUS UNUM" are incused on the coin's edge.
The obverse (heads) of American Innovation $1 Coins features a dramatic representation of the Statue of Liberty in profile with the inscriptions "IN GOD WE TRUST" and "$1." The obverse also includes a privy mark of a stylized gear, representing industry and innovation.
Are they only sold in Rolls ? What I mean is can these be bought at a bank ? Or are they more of a collector Item although they are legal tender coins ?
Yep only available in rolls and 100 coin bags from the mint. All dollar coins since 2012 have been NCLT (Non-Circulating Legal Tender, alternate term is NIFC, Not Intended For Circulation) They CAN be spent, but only after someone pays a premium for them from the Mint.
I let the dealers buy the bag and then buy a P&D of each coin for an album. I probably pay 2 dollars per coin but whatever...maybe my kids will enjoy it one day.
