2024 American Innovation One Dollar Coin, Missouri, George Washington Carver

 [Product Description]

 This is a 2024 one-dollar coin from the "American Innovation One Dollar" series issued by the United States Mint, featuring George Washington Carver, a renowned agricultural scientist representing Missouri. It is the fourth and final design in the series issued in 2024.

 George Washington Carver was born in what is now Missouri under slavery and later made significant contributions as a scientist, educator, and agricultural researcher. He spent many years researching and teaching at Tuskegee College, where he advocated crop rotation using peanuts, sweet potatoes, and beans. He is known for his contributions to restoring soil depleted by continuous cotton cultivation and improving the lives of farmers.

 The reverse side depicts Carver in his laboratory, holding a laboratory flask and examining his research findings. Surrounding him are peanut leaves, flowers, and fruits, combined with scientific instruments, representing his lifelong dedication to plant research and agricultural science.

 The obverse features a depiction of the Statue of Liberty, with a gear-shaped private mark symbolizing industry and technological innovation positioned in the lower left corner. This coin is also an attractive collector's item, as it tells the story of American history of science, agriculture, and education.

 *Although it has a gold color, it is not a gold coin. It is a clad coin made of manganese brass.
