The $1 Steve Jobs Coin features a young Steve Jobs in a turtleneck,
jeans, and sneakers. The coin is inscribed with the words "make
something wonderful." A full description is available on the U.S.
Mint website:

This design presents a young Steve Jobs sitting in front
of a quintessentially northern California landscape of
oak-covered rolling hills. His posture and expression,
as he is captured in a moment of reflection, show how
this environment inspired his vision to transform complex
technology into something as intuitive and organic as
nature itself. Inscriptions are "UNITED STATES OF
AMERICA" and "CALIFORNIA." Additional inscriptions are
"STEVE JOBS" and "MAKE SOMETHING WONDERFUL."

When it launches in 2026, the Steve Jobs coin will be purchasable
from the U.S. Mint website. The collectible coins will be available
for $13.25, or in a set of four (including three featuring other
innovators/innovations) for $27.50. Rolls of 25 coins and bags of
100 coins are also available.

The Steve Jobs coin is part of a multi-year series that started in
2018. Each state is able to nominate an American innovation or
pioneering effort for memorialization in a collectible coin.

California Governor Gavin Newsom recommended Apple co-founder Steve
Jobs for the coin earlier this year. Newsom said that Jobs'
willingness to try new ideas and push the boundaries of what's
possible embodied the California spirit.
