Emma W. asks: Who was the first U.S. President to appear on a silver coin?
The first regular issue silver coin that shows a United States President is the 1932 Washington quarter. The first non-circulating silver commemorative coin to show a U.S. President is the 1900 Lafayette Dollar that shows conjoined busts of Washington and Lafayette. This reverse of this coin shows the monument of General Lafayette on horse back that was a gift of the American People to the city of Paris.
