Why Add This Historic Proof Dollar to Your Collection?

  • Historical Significance: As one of the Union's most influential generals and a two-term president, Ulysses S. Grant played a crucial role in both the Civil War and the Reconstruction era. This coin pays tribute to his legacy and the years he served in office, from 1869 to 1877.
  • Distinctive Edge Lettering: Presidential Dollars feature unique edge lettering that can appear in two positions. Position A allows the lettering to be read when the coin’s obverse faces down or the reverse is facing up, adding an intriguing dimension to each coin.
  • Exceptional Proof Quality: With its Deep Cameo finish, this proof coin displays high contrast between the finely frosted portrait and the mirror-like background, underscoring the U.S. Mint’s dedication to precision and artistry.
