John Adams was the second President of the United States. Therefore, the John Adams Dollar is the second design released in the Presidential Dollar Program.

Reverse: On the reverse of the coin the Statue of Liberty is depicted. In front of her is a $1 symbol indicating the face value of the coin. The words United States of America are also encircled around the coin.

Edge: The edge inscriptions will read 2007-P which refer to the date in which the coins were released into circulation, along with the mint mark representing the Mint in which the coins were produced.

Circulation Strikes: John Adams circulation strike dollars were officially released on May 17, 2007. Circulation strike John Adams Dollars were produced at Philadelphia and Denver. Circulation strike coins go through a Schuler edge lettering machine which rolls the Presidential Dollar coins in order to impress the edge lettering on the coins edges.

Proofs: In 2007 there were also John Adams Dollars produced at the San Francisco Mint. Besides proof coins displaying a reflective mirror like appearance, the edge lettering is also struck differently by using a segmented die collar to strike the edge.
