The Philadelphia mint produced 176,680,000 coins, and the Denver mint produced 163,680,000 coins. The George Washington Presidential Dollar had the highest overall mintage for the series with more than 300 million coins produced for circulation. Mint would modify their production process to vastly reduce the incidence of this error, and eventually Congress would mandate the placement of “In God We Trust” on the obverse of the coin starting with 2009. The motto, of course, was still present on the edge of the coin.Īdding some confusion to the situation, approximately 100,000 George Washington Presidential Dollars were struck in error missing the edge lettering, which meant that they actually did lack the motto. Many people believed that the motto had been omitted from the coins in an attempt to “phase Gold out of America.” There were many calls to boycott the new $1 coins, including a widely distributed email chain letter. Placement of the motto “In God We Trust” on the edge of the coin was a source of controversy. The obverse features inscriptions “GEORGE WASHINGTON,” “1st PRESIDENT,” and the years of his presidential term “1789-1797.” The reverse inscriptions include “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” and the denomination “$1.” The date and mint mark are located on the edge inscription of the coin along with the mottoes “IN GOD WE TRUST” and “E PLURIBUS UNUM.” The reverse designer/sculptor was Don Everhart. The obverse designer/sculptor was Joseph Menna. The obverse of the coin features a portrait of President Washington and the reverse features a rendition of the Statue of Liberty that will be used for all Presidential Dollars.
