In ancient cultures, cannabis was used largely for medicinal purposes. Historians typically date its earliest use to around 500 BC in Asia. In early America, cannabis was extremely common among the colonists, who used hemp for rope and woven fabrics. In fact, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Virginia were all required to grow cannabis in the early 17th century. It wasn’t until the 20th century that cannabis became criminalized due to a combination of ethical, racial, and political factors.
Each 1 oz Legalized Collection New Jersey Silver Round will arrive inside a decorative, factory-sealed blister card. This card both protects your round and also provides certificate information. These rounds have a limited mintage, beautiful designs, and an antique finish, making them the perfect way to celebrate New Jersey’s legalization of cannabis.
The obverse of 1 oz Antique Legalized Collection New Jersey Rounds features a modified New Jersey state seal. In this image we see two Lady Liberty figures propping up a shield. Inscriptions on the seal read I voted, Question 1, 2020. Additional inscriptions read State of New Jersey, One oz .999 Silver.
On the reverse field of Antique Legalized Collection New Jersey Silver Rounds there is a depiction of a cannabis leaf. Across this image, there are two fists in chains breaking free. Additional details include the THC chemical formula, and inscriptions reading Legalized, End the War, Nature’s Medicine, Hemp for Industry. Surrounding the entire rim is the image of a chain.
