2025 Florida, Nasa Space Shuttle, American Innovation $1 Rolls And Bags - Available On May 15
2025, May 15

US Mint - The United States Mint (Mint) will open sales for rolls and bags of the third 2025 American Innovation $1 Coin on May 15 at noon ET. This coin honors an innovation from the state of Florida. The Florida Innovation $1 coin is the third coin released in 2025 and the 28th coin in the 15-year series.


The reverse (tails) design of the coin recognizes the innovation of the space shuttle program.

"I am pleased to announce the release of the American Innovation $1 Coin honoring a Florida innovation," said Kristie McNally, the Mint's Acting Director. "For more than 60 years, NASA's Kennedy Space Center has assembled, researched, launched, and landed spacecraft. The Space Shuttle, officially known as the Space Transportation System, remains one of history's most iconic and influential spacecrafts. As the world's first reusable spacecraft, it played a pivotal role in advancing space exploration. We are honored to celebrate this major achievement."

"NASA's space shuttles made history as the world's first reusable spacecraft," said Kelvin Manning, Acting Director, NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. "Today, as we endeavor to send American astronauts back to the Moon and on to Mars, NASA and Kennedy Space Center continue to innovate new technologies, build new partnerships, inspire the Artemis Generation, and enable discoveries for the benefit of everyone on Earth."

The Florida American Innovation $1 Coin reverse design presents an image of a NASA space shuttle lifting off from Launch Complex 39 at Kennedy Space Center in Florida. An exhaust plume from the solid rocket boosters fills the lower edges of the design with stars in the background. Included inscriptions are "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" and "FLORIDA." United States Mint Medallic Artist Eric David Custer sculpted the image, and Artistic Infusion Program (AIP) Designer Ron Sanders designed it.

The obverse (heads) design of all coins in the American Innovation $1 Coin Program features a dramatic representation of the Statue of Liberty in profile with the inscriptions "IN GOD WE TRUST" and "$1." The design also includes a privy mark of a stylized gear, representing industry and innovation. Mint AIP Designer Justin Kunz created the design, and it was sculpted by Mint Medallic Artist Phebe Hemphill.

Incused on the coin's edge are "2025," the mint mark ("P" or "D"), and "E PLURIBUS UNUM."

The following packaging options from the Mint's facilities in Philadelphia and Denver will be available:
