Ford promotes commemorative coin series in Pennsylvania
Former President Ford activated a 360 ton coin press to launch a George Washington inauguration medal in New York on April 30, 1789. He defended the project as worthwhile and profitable, declined to disclose pay from the Franklin Mint, and criticized the Carter administration over the coal strike and the Marston firing. The coin sets cost 1950 dollars for sterling silver and 2750 for gold, issued monthly over eight years, with Nixon depicted in three events.
