The value of a 2007 dollar coin depends on several factors, including its type, condition, and any potential errors.
- The United States began minting Presidential Dollar coins in 2007, honoring deceased presidents.
- The George Washington Presidential Dollar was the first in the series.
- Most 2007 Presidential Dollars, especially in circulated condition, are worth their face value ($1).
- However, uncirculated specimens (coins that have not been used in transactions) can fetch a higher price, typically ranging from $1.50 to $70 depending on the specific president featured and grading.
- Proof coins , minted specifically for collectors, tend to have higher values, with prices ranging from $1.90 to $27.00.
- Certain errors can significantly increase the value of 2007 Presidential Dollars.
- The most well-known error is the missing edge lettering , where the inscription along the coin’s edge is absent. These coins are particularly sought after by collectors and can sell for hundreds or even thousands of dollars.
- Other errors include doubled edge lettering, die clashes, missing layers , and coins struck on incorrect planchets (e.g., on a nickel instead of a dollar planchet).
- For example, a 2007 George Washington dollar with missing edge lettering can be worth between $24.00 and $725.
- A 2007 John Adams dollar with missing edge lettering can be worth between $34.00 and $390.
- A rare 2007 George Washington dollar struck on a Jefferson nickel planchet sold for over $17,600 at auction.
- The 2007 Sacagawea Dollar also holds some value, particularly for collectors.
- Uncirculated 2007-P (Philadelphia Mint) Sacagawea dollars are valued between $3.00 and $41.00.
- The 2007-D (Denver Mint) Sacagawea dollars in uncirculated condition are valued between $3.00 and $27.00.
- Proof Sacagawea coins, minted at the San Francisco Mint (S), with a perfect grade of 70, are available for $11.95.
In conclusion, while most 2007 dollar coins are only worth their face value, specific errors and uncirculated examples can be worth significantly more to collectors. It is always best to consult a coin expert or refer to a reputable coin price guide for an accurate valuation of a specific coin.
