Thomas Jefferson Presidential One Dollar Coin

This is a United States circulation-grade Presidential One Dollar Coin featuring Thomas Jefferson, the third President of the United States. The coin was originally minted in 2007 as part of the Presidential $1 Coin Program launched by the US Mint. It is composed of a manganese-brass alloy over a copper core, giving it a characteristic golden appearance. The obverse side shown depicts a forward-facing portrait of Thomas Jefferson with the inscriptions 'THOMAS JEFFERSON,' '3rd PRESIDENT,' and his years in office, '1801-1809.' The coin features a plain, raised rim. Regarding its condition, the piece shows clear signs of circulation including moderate surface wear, numerous small contact marks, and light scratches across the portrait. There are visible dark oxidation spots (toning) and a small greenish speck at the left edge, likely verdigris or surface contamination. The strike remains relatively sharp, though the finer details of the hair have softened from age and handling. This is a common circulation issue coin, and while it lacks the luster of a 'Proof' or 'Uncirculated' specimen, it remains a recognizable piece of modern American numismatic history.
