When a President served without a spouse, as did James Buchanan, a gold coin is
issued bearing an obverse image emblematic of Liberty as depicted on a circulating coin
of that era, and a reverse image emblematic of a theme of that President's life. The
obverse features a reproduction of the Liberty Head Quarter Eagle designed by
Christian Gobrecht. The reverse depicts President Buchanan as a young man working
as a bookkeeper in his family’s small country store.

To encourage robust national circulation of $1 Coins (non-numismatic, circulation-grade coins), the United States Mint has introduced the Circulating $1 Coin Direct Ship Program. This program makes it easy for retailers, financial institutions, and other interested parties to obtain smaller quantities of $1 coins.
