We highlight one of his videos each week in The E-Sylum. Here's one from 2009 with Michael "Stan" Turrini speaking about the 1946 Iowa Statehood Centennial Commemorative half dollars. -Editor

 

Nearly two decades ago a sealed and secured hoard of (500) 1946 Iowa Statehood Centennial Commemorative half dollars were removed from a bank vault in downtown Des Moines and opened publicly. These half dollars are still on sale via the State Treasurer's office! Learn the background of this hoard, locked away over 60 years ago, from an expert who researched the coins for ten years.

Speaker(s): Michael "Stan" Turrini.
