James Buchanan related products dominate United States Mint releases during the month of September.
Buchanan Presidential dollars were issued last month (August 19), but Buchanan was the only U.S. President never to marry and, therefore, his image will also be featured on the next two proof and uncirculated First Spouse Gold Coins as well as the companion bronze medal.
Up for release toward the end of September is the fourth of five America the Beautiful Quarters™. The Grand Canyon National Park Quarter will be launched into circulation on September 20. Its ceremonial release is scheduled for the following day at 1:30 p.m. (MST), on the park’s South Rim, between Hopi House and Verkamp’s Visitor Center.
