The coins are mounted on a display card placed inside an envelope with a Red, White, and Blue Forever® stamp. The cover also features President Eisenhower's portrait and the postmark of May 5, 2015, Denison Station, TX, which marks the day the United States Mint issued the coin cover. Only 15,000 units will be produced.

Each coin has a common reverse design featuring a striking rendition of the Statue of Liberty. These coins feature large, dramatic artwork and edge-incused inscriptions of the year of minting, or issuance, “E PLURIBUS UNUM” and the mint mark. The inscription “IN GOD WE TRUST” appears on the face of the coins. The size, weight and metal composition of the Presidential $1 Coins are identical to that of the Native American $1 Coins.
