Description: 2024 Philadelphia & Denver Mint 8 Coin Business Strike Innovation Dollar Set Up for sale is a complete set of 8 2024 Philadelphia & Denver Business Strike Innovation dollars (4 P & 4 D). In 2024 there were four Innovation Dollar designs released, one each for the states of Illinois, Alabama, Maine & Missouri .This listing includes a Philadelphia & Denver coin for the four designs in 2024 for the four state Innovation Dollars released (IL, AL, ME & MO). Note that NONE of these coins have been released into circulation and all have been sourced from US mint bags or rolls directly purchased from the US mint at a premium. All uncirculated coins are directly from freshly cracked US mint rolls/bags, handled with gloves and never circulated (though due to the minting process it is normal to have some scratches on the coins). While the 2024 Innovation Dollars have not sold out at the US mint as of yet, each year prior to 2024 (i.e. from when the series began in 2018) have been a sell out and there are limited mintages of ALL of the Innovation series. This coin set includes all of the following interesting coins: 1) P&D mint business strikes of the 2024 American Innovation IL Steel Plow dollar2) P&D mint business strikes of the 2024 American Innovation AL Saturn V dollar3) P&D mint business strikes of the 2024 American Innovation ME Direct Current Defibrillator dollar4) P&D mint business strikes of the 2024 American Innovation MO George Washington Carver dollar Note that the American Innovation Dollar series will continue with 4 designs a year for the coming years one design each one representing American Innovators from each state of the union and the six territories. In total the regular mint business strike issue design coins will total 57 coins by the time the series is complete. I will be listing yearly update sets at the end of each year to cover each year's new coinage. Below is the information from the mint on the Innovation series. Note that these coins do not circulate and can only be had by purchasing direct from the mint. The new American Innovation $1 Coin Program from the United States Mint symbolizes quintessentially American traits—the willingness to explore, to discover, and to create one’s own destiny. The program showcases an innovation, innovator or group of innovators from each State or Territory in beautiful uncirculated and proof finishes. This new series is perfect to share with experienced numismatists, as well as a wonderful opportunity to spark a new love of coin-collecting and American history. IL Innovation Dollar Illinoian farmer and blacksmith John Lane changed the landscape of agriculture when he created the first steel plow out of a sawmill blade. In the 19th century, America was expanding westward, and farmer’s traditional wooden plows struggled going from the soft east coast soil to the tough and compacted midwestern plains. John Lane’s steel plow made quick work of the midwestern sod and laid the groundwork for the region that is now known as “America’s Breadbasket.The Illinois American innovation $1 Coin reverse (tails) design features a large steel plow blade affixed to a right-handed beam and braces. Behind the plow is a stand of Big Bluestem prairie grass and a field of soil below. Included inscriptions are “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “STEEL PLOW,” and “ILLINOIS.”AL Innovation DollarOn July 16, 1969, the world watched as a Saturn V rocket launched the Apollo 11 mission to the Moon, allowing American astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin to become the first men to walk on its surface. This historic moment captured the hearts and minds of people across the globe and was a momentous victory in the Space Race between the United States and the Soviet Union. Built at the Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, the Saturn V rocket launched all six of the Apollo Moon landings and did so without losing any crew members or cargo. The Alabama American innovation $1 Coin reverse (tails) design depicts the power and force of the Saturn V rocket lifting off with the Moon in the background. Included inscriptions are “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “SATURN V,” and “ALABAMA.” ME Innovation DollarDr. Bernard Lown was a Lithuanian-American cardiologist who put his heart into saving lives. He immigrated to the United States in 1935 to escape Nazi persecution for his Jewish heritage, eventually settling in his new hometown of Lewiston, Maine. Lown would go on to study medicine and invent the Direct Current Defibrillator, a lifesaving device that uses direct electrical current in time with the heartbeat’s cycle to correct abnormal rhythms thought to be responsible for 40% of fatal heart attacks in the United States.The Maine American Innovation $1 Coin reverse (tail) design presents a profile portrait of Dr. Bernard Lown with his direct current defibrillator in operation below. The design includes the inscriptions “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “BERNARD LOWN, M.D.,” “DIRECT CURRENT DEFIBRILLATOR,” and “MAINE.” MO Innovation DollarGeorge Washington Carver was born into slavery in Diamond, Missouri. He went on to become the agricultural scientist who helped save the South’s agrarian economy. Following the abolition of slavery, many formerly enslaved people became small-scale farmers, but struggled to thrive on nutrient-depleted land due to single-crop overuse. Dr. Carver knew that his lessons on crop rotation and practical farming methods could help if they could reach farmers outside of his classrooms at Tuskegee University. The Missouri American Innovation $1 Coin reverse (tail) design presents a depiction of George Washington Carver gently smiling while examining a sample of his work in his laboratory. The leaves, blossoms, and fruits of a peanut plant weave between scientific equipment. Inscriptions include “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “MISSOURI,” and “GEORGE WASHINGTON CARVER.” $5.25 USPS Ground Advantage shipping with tracking.
