The 2006-P $1 Franklin-Founding Father (Regular Strike) is a distinguished commemorative silver dollar coin that pays homage to one of America's most revered figures, Benjamin Franklin, during his later years. This coin, designed by the talented artists Don Everhart and Donna Weaver, offers a unique perspective on Franklin's enduring legacy as a Founding Father of the United States.

The Franklin-Founding Father design portrays Franklin during his later years, symbolizing his significant contributions to the founding of the United States. The coin's obverse features a dignified image of an older Benjamin Franklin, capturing his wisdom and statesmanship. Alongside his image are inscriptions that include "Benjamin Franklin Tercentenary," "Liberty," "1706 - 2006," "In God We Trust," and a reproduction of his signature at the bottom of the coin. The reverse of the coin draws inspiration from the 1776 Continental Currency Dollar, a historic emblem from the early days of the United States. This design includes inscriptions that underscore the coin's historical significance: "United States of America," "One Dollar," "E Pluribus Unum," "Continental Currency 1776," "Fugio," and "Mind Your Business." The 2006-P $1 Franklin-Founding Father (Regular Strike) serves as a powerful tribute to Benjamin Franklin's role as a Founding Father and his enduring impact on the nation. With its striking design and historical significance, this coin commemorates Franklin's wisdom, vision, and contributions to the establishment of the United States as a beacon of liberty and opportunity.
