The 2006 Franklin Founding Father Proof Commemorative Silver Dollar pays tribute to one of America's most distinguished Founding Fathers, Benjamin Franklin, during his later years of life. With its elegant design and historical significance, this coin is a remarkable addition to any collection. Obverse Design: The obverse of this exquisite coin features a dignified and aged Benjamin Franklin, commemorating the tercentenary of his birth (1706-2006). His wisdom and statesmanship are captured in this portrayal. The inscriptions "Benjamin Franklin Tercentenary," "Liberty," "1706 - 2006," and "In God We Trust" encircle his image. Additionally, Franklin's signature graces the bottom of the coin, adding a personal touch to this tribute. Reverse Design: On the reverse side of the coin, a design inspired by the 1776 Continental Currency Dollar is elegantly presented. It includes the inscriptions "United States of America," "One Dollar," "E Pluribus Unum" (out of many, one), "Continental Currency 1776," "Fugio," and "Mind Your Business." This design echoes the historical significance of Franklin's contributions to America's foundation, particularly his role in the creation of the Continental Currency.
