2009-P Zachary Taylor Presidential Dollar BU
Introduced in 2009 as part of an ongoing series celebrating former United States leaders, this one dollar coin honors Zachary Taylor, who served as the twelfth president from 1849 to 1850. Struck at the Philadelphia Mint, the coin is presented in brilliant uncirculated condition, preserving the crisp details of its design. The front of the coin displays a detailed portrait of Zachary Taylor, framed by his name and his term of office. The reverse features a powerful depiction of the Statue of Liberty alongside the denomination of one dollar. A distinctive feature of this modern series is its lettered edge, which moves traditional inscriptions off the main faces of the coin to allow the artwork to stand out. With a diameter of 26.5 millimeters and a weight of 8.1 grams, the coin is composed of a specialized alloy containing 88.5 percent copper, 6 percent zinc, 3.5 percent manganese, and 2 percent nickel. This metallic blend gives the coin its characteristic golden appearance, making it a fascinating study in modern American coinage design.
