One of the most impressive coin collections from 2020 was the Lost States of America Series. We know the United States of America today as a collaboration of 50 individual states governed by a larger federal government, with all this originating from 13 former British colonies that shook off the yoke of a tyrannical monarch to independently govern themselves as a new nation. American history brought about several moments where the fabric of the nation may have looked different.

If then-General Sam Houston had had his way, the State of Texas would look a bit different today. Houston, and others, envisioned the establishment of the State of Jacinto in what is today southeastern Texas. The vision was born out of the Texan victory at the Battle of San Jacinto in 1836 that brought independence from Mexico for Texas.

Obverse features on the 2020 Proof Cook Islands Silver Lost States of America Jacinto Coins include scenes from the Battle of San Jacinto. The battle saw General Sam Houston lead 800 Texans against the 1,500-man Mexican Army led by General Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna. The result was a resounding Texan victory that established the independent Republic of Texas. An effigy of Queen Elizabeth II also features on this side of the coin.

Reverse design elements on 2020 1 oz Proof Silver Lost States of America Jacinto Coins include a portrait of Sam Houston with his rifle in hand. Houston was a larger-than-life Texan during the independence movement and Republic era. He was elected the 1^st President of Texas in 1836, served a second term in 1841 as the 3^rd President of Texas, and later served as the 7^th Governor of Texas after its 1845 annexation by the United States of America.
