Eastern time. The coin is offered in rolls of 25 for $61, or $2.44 per coin, and in bags of 100 for $154.50, or $1.55 per coin. Buyers can select coins minted in Philadelphia or Denver immediately, while those from California will become available in the third quarter of 2026.

The design shows Jobs as a younger man sitting cross-legged in front of a California landscape with rolling hills and oak trees. " The heads side features a profile of the Statue of Liberty alongside a Liberty Bell marked with "250" to mark the country's 250th anniversary.

The edge of the coin carries the mint mark and the year of minting. The Mint has issued specialty coins each year since 2018 to recognize American innovation and pioneering efforts. It revealed the 2026 designs late last year. The agency described the Jobs depiction by stating his posture and expression, captured in a moment of reflection, show how the environment inspired his vision to transform complex technology into something as intuitive and organic as nature itself.

Purchasers can acquire the coins in two formats starting today. The 25-coin rolls cost $61 while the 100-coin bags are priced at $154.50. This staggered release aligns with the Mint's established pattern for the Innovation series, which has continued annually since its launch in 2018.
