The value of an Andrew Jackson dollar coin can vary depending on several factors, including its condition, mint mark, and any potential errors.
In general, a typical Andrew Jackson Presidential Dollar, which was issued in 2008 and is made of a manganese brass clad copper, is worth its face value of one dollar in circulated condition.
However, some variations can increase the coin’s value:
- Uncirculated condition: Coins in pristine, uncirculated condition will be worth more than those that have been used.
- Mint marks: Andrew Jackson dollars were minted in Philadelphia (P), Denver (D), and San Francisco (S). Values may differ between mint marks, particularly for uncirculated coins or those with errors.
- Missing edge lettering: A well-known error on Presidential Dollars involves coins missing the motto “E Pluribus Unum,” the mint mark, and the date along the coin’s edge. These error coins can be considerably more valuable than regular coins.
- Other errors: Other minting errors, such as strike errors or incorrect planchets, can also increase the value of an Andrew Jackson dollar coin. For example, a 2008-P Andrew Jackson dollar with a mint strike error is currently listed for $1173.20 (discounted from $1995).
