The heads of George Washington and the marquis de Lafayette appear on this issue, which was the firest commemorative coin of the one dollar denomination, and the first authorized United States coin to bear a portrait of a U.S. president. The dies were prepared by Charles E. Barber. The statue on the reverse is similar to the monument of General Lafayette that was erected in Paris as a gift of the American people. The coins were sold by the Lafayette Memorial Commission for two dollars each.
