lincolncollector Valued Member United States 373 Posts	Posted 12/04/2011 11:43 pm I saw on the usmint.gov website that in 2016, the last Presidential dollars will be minted for Nixon and Ford. So, I'm assuming they aren't going past President Ford with the Presidential dollar series. Is this a correct assumption? Why are they stopping with President Ford? Any particular reason?

Carter isn't dead yet, so no coin for him. My understanding though was that Reagon could get a coin, but they might not want to have a blank there where Carter should be, so Ford might be the last one. Report this Post to the Staff

Even if the mint already intends to issue the Reagan coin, they would not list him after Ford until Carter became ineligible (by being alive in 2014).
