Check your change! New coins honor America's 250th anniversary.

One of the coins created to commemorate the United States' 250th anniversary will begin circulating on Monday, Jan. 5, the U.S. Mint announced on social media.

The Mayflower Compact Quarter is the first of five new Quarter Dollar designs for 2026. The collectable features two pilgrims, a man and a woman, under a banner that reads "E Pluribus Unum," which translates to "out of many, one."

The other 25-cent coins slated for circulation include the Revolutionary War quarter, the Declaration of Independence quarter, the U.S. Constitution quarter and the Gettysburg Address quarter.  

The Revolutionary War coin features George Washington on the front, with a Continental Army soldier at Valley Forge on the back, and the inscription "Revolutionary War."

The Declaration of Independence quarter displays a side portrait of Thomas Jefferson on the front with the Liberty Bell on the back. The U.S. Constitution quarter features a portrait of James Madison; the Gettysburg Address quarter features Abraham Lincoln on the front, with two clasped hands on the back and the inscription "A New Nation Conceived in Liberty."

Other coins being minted for the occasion include a dime with the face of Liberty, a nickel with Thomas Jefferson and a "1776∽2026" inscription, a Liberty half dollar and a 1776∽2026 penny.

The U.S. Mint revealed the coin designs on Dec. 11.

In a news release, Kristie McNally, acting director of the U.S. Mint, said the coin designs "depict the story of America’s journey toward a 'more perfect union,' and celebrate America’s defining ideals of liberty."

McNally added: "We hope to offer each American the opportunity to hold our nation’s storied 250 years of history in the palms of their hands as we Connect America through Coins."

It’s not clear when the remaining coins will enter circulation, but they will all be made available before the country’s semiquincentennial anniversary.

Will there be a Trump coin?

The Treasury Department announced in October that it was considering new $1 coins featuring President Donald Trump’s image as part of its series to celebrate America’s 250th birthday. (The Mint has proposed designs for the coin on its website.)

Federal law prohibits any living person from being on U.S. currency.

How to purchase the coins?

The coins can be purchased directly through the U.S. Mint’s website.
