Bill > S633

This bill amends Title 31 of the United States Code to require the Secretary of the Treasury to mint and issue commemorative $1 coins honoring deceased Presidents who have not yet been featured on a coin, with specific design requirements and timing parameters. The bill mandates that for each deceased President not previously honored, a $1 coin shall be designed and issued within three years of the President's death, maintaining the existing legal tender status and numismatic item classification. Additionally, the bill requires the Secretary to issue accompanying bullion coins featuring the spouse of each honored President, with the provision that no bullion coin is required for Presidents who served without a spouse. The Secretary is also authorized to mint these coins in both uncirculated and proof qualities, and may additionally strike and sell bronze medals featuring the likeness of the bullion coins. This legislation aims to create a comprehensive commemorative coin program that recognizes deceased Presidents and their spouses, providing a numismatic tribute to their historical significance.
