Show Us the Money

Coins—money—honoring Ulysses S. Grant were dispersed for the first time nationwide, from Grant’s  White Haven  home, a national park. Hundreds turned out in the rain and sat under a giant tent erected for the occasion.

White Haven park borders the city of Crestwood on Grant Road between Gravois and Watson roads.

The ceremony included historian  John F. Marszalek , who delivered a keynote address. Marszalek is executive director and managing editor of the  Ulysses S. Grant Association  and the author of several books about the Civil War.

Since 2007,  one dollar coins  have rolled out of the mint honoring each of the nation’s presidents in the order they held office. Four are released each year.
