2020 Cook Islands Lost States of America McDonald 1oz Silver Proof Coin. The States That Never Were Are the Coins You Gotta Have! Everyone knows that the United States of America is comprised of 50 states. These days it’s hard to even imagine the nation any other way. To bring that history to life, the Cook Islands has released a “Lost States of America” coin series. Mint Designer Joel Iskowitz To bring this series to life, the Cook islands turned to award-winning artist Joel Iskowitz, a prolific coin and medal designer from New York, who designed more than 50 coins and medals for the U. Mint while part of its Artistic Infusion Program from 2005 to 2018. A student of history, Iskowitz based his designs on the unique stories of these Lost States of America. Legal-Tender Proof Coins In addition to quarter-sized clad proof coins designed to complement the U. Using Coin Invest Trust’s (CIT) Smartminting® technology, the High Relief detail is so lifelike you’ll almost think you’re witnessing history as it unfolds in your hands! Plus, each coin comes in gorgeous Gem Proof condition, meaning they were all expertly crafted from hand-selected planchets, polished dies and multiple strikes to produce beautifully frosted details rising over mirror-like fields. The Lost State of McDonald Here you can secure the fourth release in the series from 2020; The Lost State of McDonald. This “state” was an unrecognized territory with its own provisional government that existed briefly in 1961, when it attempted to secede from the state of Missouri. The reason for this attempted secession was the omission of popular resort town Noel, Missouri from maps printed in 1961. The coin’s obverse features a profile of a Native American wearing a full headdress, while the reverse depicts an elk to represent the Elk River which runs through McDonald County.
