Opmerkingen

Applied Currency Concepts produced a series of novelty "state dollars" to coincide with various American statehood anniversaries, and this Alaska piece dates to what the issuer frames as 1959 — the year Alaska achieved statehood. These are not legal tender in any jurisdiction and carry no monetary value. The QR code links to issuer promotional content, which is an unusual feature to find on a collectible of this type but consistent with ACC's marketing approach across the series.

Sheldon Jackson was a Presbyterian missionary and federal education agent who played a significant role in introducing reindeer herding to Alaska in the 1890s, attempting to address food scarcity among indigenous coastal populations.
