With an estimated population of 39 million people as of 2019 and a $3 trillion annual economic output, California is an American powerhouse. If it were an independent nation, California would have the 36th highest population and the fifth-largest economy in the world ahead of nations such as the United Kingdom, France, and India. When the state legalized recreational marijuana use in 2016, it instantly created the single largest market for recreational cannabis in the world.

California was a leader in the movement to make marijuana legal for medicinal purposes when it legalized medicinal cannabis in 1996. This was quickly followed by Alaska, Washington, and Oregon in 1998, with 33 US states now offering medicinal marijuana legally. The state was a little slower to act on recreational cannabis legalization, but was still among the first 10 to do so.
The 2016 ballot in the state of California included Prop 64, a measure known as the Control, Regulate, and Tax Adult Use of Marijuana Act. It may not have been the leading state to push for legalized recreational cannabis, but it certainly passed its ballot measure with the greatest amount of voter support in any given state to date. 57% of California residents voted in favor of Prop 64.
On the reverse of the 1 oz Antique Legalized Collection California Silver Round are images inspired by the state seal of California and cannabis themes that relate to the state’s recent move to legalize recreational cannabis use.
The obverse of 1 oz Legalized Collection California Rounds features a cannabis leaf in the center. This leaf has handcuffed fists and a chain around the outer border representing the federal government’s efforts to stymie the growing legalization movement.
These 1 oz Antique Legalized Collection California Silver Rounds are available inside of blister cards with numbered certificate information. The antique polish results in a brushed finish to the appearance of the silver rounds.
In the Legalized Collection, Blockchain Mint offers 11 distinctive designs for the 10 US states that have legalized recreational cannabis use, along with a design for Washington DC. You’ll also find two 5 oz releases for the nations of Uruguay and Canada, two countries that have legalized cannabis on a federal level.
