Introducción de monedas
The 2006 Benjamin Franklin Silver Dollar was issued for the 300th anniversary of the birth of this important figure in American history. Different silver dollar designs were released featuring Benjamin Franklin in his younger years as a scientist and his older years as a statesman and Founding Father. The maximum authorized mintage for the Benjamin Franklin Silver Dollars was 500,000 coins, across both designs. Proof and uncirculated versions were produced at the Philadelphia Mint, as a nod to Franklin’s ties to the city. The US Mint sold the coins individually beginning on January 17, 2006, the exact 300th anniversary of Franklin’s birth. The coins were also included in some specially issued sets. The proof version of the Founding Father coin was included in the 2006 American Legacy Collection. The uncirculated version of the Scientist coin was included in a Coin & Chronicles Set, which included newly released U.S. postage stamps featuring Franklin and a reproduction of the 1758 edition of Poor Richard’s Almanack. These special sets were each limited to production of 50,000 units.Leer más
