2010-P Franklin Pierce Dollar

The 14th presidential dollar out of 32. Some have not been released for circulation but that does not stop them from circulating. Still I have to find the older ones and it has been slow going.

President Franklin Pierce had a huge tragedy as president losing his son. That colored his decisions and made him a less effective president. Not much else comes to mind about Pierce since he was before my time.

Here's the stats...
Type/Country: 1 Dollar-Franklin Pierce / United States
Year: 2010 P (Edge upside down)
Mintage: 38,220,000
Metal: 88.5% Copper, 6% Zinc, 3.5% Manganese, and 2% Nickel

2014-D Shenandoah Quarter

Six months after its launch I finally got a Denver version of the Shenandoah Quarter. Got the Philly version back in May so I am done with this Park if you do not count any San Francisco minted quarters.

Not bad for a new quarter, it usually takes a year or two to find one. Next up is the Grans Dunes which is already out. The Everglades National Park is being launched in November so that is another great one to look for before the year ends.

Here's the stats...
Type/Country: 25 Cents - Shenandoah / United States
Year: 2014-D
Mintage: 197,800,000 (estimated)
Metal: 91.67% Copper 8.33% Nickel
Value: $0.25 in F-12

2013-P Woodrow Wilson Dollar

Again not issued for circulation!

Like the Theodore Roosevelt dollar I found recently this coin was only available to collectors who order them.Still it is common and when not in high grade is usually placed back into circulation.

Woodrow Wilson is one of my favorite presidents only because he is also on the $100,000 bill. Those $100,000 notes were only used to transfer money between banks and never issued for circulation but the thought of getting one was cool.

President Wilson was known for wanting to help people and the economy while making sure businesses do not take advantage of everything and abuse their power. Wilson created laws that turned the government into a tool for people and businesses and not a controlling entity.

Mintage: 4,620,000

2014 British Penny

Brand new penny from across the pond. Nice to get them while they are still shiny. I wonder how many Brits did not even get this penny yet and here I find one in my American change.

Canadian, British, and of course American coins are easiest to get new form your change. Even in other countries the new coins are made in less quantities so finding them maybe tough. I suspect euros are also fairly easy to find new but with so many euro countries it would difficult to get the one you want.

Here's the stats...
Type/Country: 1 Penny / Great Britain
Year: 2014
Mintage: Unknown
Metal: Copper-Plated Steel
Value: $0.02 in VF

2014 (1435) United Arab Emirates Dirham

In 2012 the United Arab Emirates switched from copper-nickel dirhams to nickel-plated steel ones. There should be an overlap in 2012 for both metal types. None were minted for 2013 so 2014 is the first full production using the less expensive metal.

I must say it is much more shiny than the copper-nickel versions. Unfortunately it gets stained easily, fingerprints will corrode the surface very quickly.

Here's the stats for this coin...
Type/Country: 1 Dirham / United Arab Emirates
Year: 2004 (1435)
Mintage: Unknown
Metal: Nickel-Plated Steel
Value: $0.35 in VF (very-fine)
