  • The United States Mint American Innovation $1 Coin Program is a
    multi-year series honoring innovation and innovators with $1 coins from

  • The Georgia coin is the last of four to be released in 2019. It
    features the Trustees’ Garden, established by James Oglethorpe in 1734.
    Oglethorpe was a British soldier, Member of Parliament, and
    philanthropist who founded the Colony of Georgia. The Trustees’ Garden
    is considered one of the first agriculture experimental gardens in
    America. The ten acres of land, located in Savannah, included plants
    from around the world so the colonists could determine the best crops
    for the Georgia climate. The Trustees’ Garden reflected the scientific
    and commercial aspirations of the trustees and their backers in England.
  • The obverse design features a dramatic representation of the Statue
    of Liberty in profile with the inscriptions “IN GOD WE TRUST” and “$1.”
  • The reverse depicts a hand planting seeds in the inscription “TRUSTEES’
    GARDEN,” from which grows a variety of species representing the variety
    of plants grown in the garden: an orange tree seedling, sassafras,
    grapes, white mulberry, flax, peaches, olive, and a young shoot too
    small to be identified. Additional inscriptions are “GEORGIA” and UNITED
    STATES OF AMERICA.”
  • The fifth coin of the American Innovations Dollar coin program.
