2008 Presidential Dollar Designs Released

A few Mint related news items came out during the Christmas and New Year's period that I neglected to cover. The most important were the release of the 2008 Presidential Dollar designs and the announcement of 2009 Quarters to honor District of Columbia and US Territories. For the next few days I will play catch up...

In late December, the Mint revealed the designs for the 2008 Presidential Dollars as well as the release schedule. The circulation release date as well as the design image from the US Mint are below:
