Colorful 1946 Iowa Commemorative, MS68 PCGS

1946 50C Iowa MS68 PCGS. Of the 100,000 Iowa commemoratives, 94,000 were sold at $2.50 each to Iowans through local banks via a lottery system, and 5,000 pieces were reserved for out-of-state sales at $3.00 apiece. The remainder were reserved for the state sesquicentennial (1996), and for the bicentennial (2046). The specimen offered here reveals multicolored toning, in which light blue-violet and brassy-gold dominate in the centers, and rainbow-like patina, with touches of lilac and crimson, around most of the border areas. Lustrous surfaces exhibit sharply struck design elements, and are virtually devoid of marks. Population: 55 in 68, 0 finer (9/04).(#9316) (Registry values: N991)
