Recently, the design of a new $1 American Innovation Coin featuring Steve Jobs was previewed by the United States Mint. The coin will soon be in production and available for purchase. The design portrays a young Steve Jobs in his iconic turtleneck, jeans, and sneakers, sitting in front of a picturesque California landscape, deep in thought.
The official description from the US Mint describes the design in detail:
The design showcases a young Steve Jobs against the backdrop of the rolling hills of northern California. His pose and expression, captured in a moment of contemplation, reflect how the environment inspired his vision to simplify complex technology into something as intuitive and natural as nature itself. The inscriptions include “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA” and “CALIFORNIA,” along with “STEVE JOBS” and “MAKE SOMETHING WONDERFUL.”
The Steve Jobs coin will be available for purchase on the US Mint website starting in 2026. The collectible version will be priced at $13.25 for a single coin or $27.50 for a four-coin set featuring other innovators and innovations. Rolls of 25 coins and bags of 100 will also be offered.
The American Innovation series, which began in 2018, features each US state nominating an innovator or invention to be commemorated on a $1 coin. California Governor Gavin Newsom nominated Jobs earlier this year, praising him for embodying the innovative spirit of California.
Jobs’ focus on using technology to connect people and provide equal access reflects the California ethos of innovation and inclusivity.
