The Grant Memorial Gold Dollar was issued to mark the 100th anniversary of Ulysses S. Grant’s birth and to raise funds for the construction of memorial buildings in Ohio. The same set of obverse and reverse designs would also be used for the Grant Memorial Half Dollar, issued under the same authorization.
