SEC. 105. SENSE OF THE CONGRESS. It is the sense of the Congress that— (1) the enactment of this Act will serve to increase the use of $1 coins generally, which will increase the circulation of the so-called “Sacagawea-design” $1 coins that have been and will continue to be minted and issued; (2) the continued minting and issuance of the so-called “Sacagawea-design” $1 coins will serve as a lasting tribute to the role of women and Native Americans in the history of the United States; (3) the full circulation potential and cost-savings benefit projections for the $1 coins are not likely to be achieved unless the coins are delivered in ways useful to ordinary commerce; (4) the coins issued in connection with this title should not be introduced with an overly expensive taxpayer-funded public relations campaign; (5) in order for the circulation of $1 coins to achieve maximum potential— (A) the coins should be as attractive as possible; and (B) the Director of the United States Mint should take all reasonable steps to ensure that all $1 coins minted and issued remain tarnish-free for as long as possible without incurring undue expense; and (6) if the Secretary of the Treasury determines to include on any $1 coin minted under section 102 of this Act a mark denoting the United States Mint facility at which the coin was struck, such mark should be edge-incused.
