The third of four 2012-dated $1 coins was released today, August 16, 2012. The new Presidential $1 coin honors Benjamin Harrison, the 23rd President of the United States.
Published a few days earlier by the United States Mint were coin production figures through to the end of July 2012. Among those figures were updated mintages for each Presidential $1 Coin, including those of Benjamin Harrison dollars.
In July, the Mint produced 200,000 more of Presidential $1 coins, with each of the four 2012-dated coin mintages moving higher. Since these dollars are no longer produced for circulation but instead struck solely for coin collectors, collector demand is responsible for pushing the mintages higher.
The following grid offers the latest U.S. Mint provided mintage figures for each Presidential $1 coin.
