What presidents are on dollar coins?
Eisenhower was the first president on a dollar coin from 1971 to 1978. From 2007 to 2011, the first 20 presidents are depicted on the dollar coins.
Why do they call money dead presidents?
It's federal law that no living man or woman can appear on U.S. coins. It has been custom since the beginning of the minting of coins for the king's images to be on them so the founders who were anti royalists had a tradition of not putting living presidents on coins. This later became law.
Does every U.S. president get a coin with their face on it?
Every U.S. president will be getting their face on a golden dollar coin as long as they have been dead for at least two years at the time of issuing. The coins are being issued by the order of their presidency, with four presidents a year. Grover Cleveland will be getting two coins since he was the 22nd and 24th president.
Who are the presidents that will be on the gold dollar?
Any who is no longer alive at the time the coin is scheduled for striking. At this point that encompasses every president except Carter, Clinton, Bush I and Bush 2. Remember, the coins are only "golden", not real gold.
