Two years before any other state took action, California legalized cannabis for medicinal uses in 1996. This was a welcome move for thousands suffering from diseases that resulted in chronic pain. In 1998, Alaska and Oregon joined California, followed by Maine in 1999. Now, 33 US states allow for legal medicinal use of marijuana and other cannabis products.
During the 2016 election cycle, California voters had the opportunity to exercise their rights and determine whether or not Prop 64 would pass. While the vote was close, California’s 57% approval for Prop 64 was the highest approval rating among the nine states that have put the legalization issue to voters at the ballot box.
On the reverse side of the 1 oz Silver Proof Legalized Collection California Rounds is the image of the great seal of California, with alterations made to celebrate the legalization of recreational cannabis use.
The obverse face of the 1 oz Silver Proof Legalized Collection Rounds centers on a cannabis leaf in the middle. There is a chain around the outer design field, and inscriptions within the design include “End the War,” “Nature’s Medicine,” and “Hemp for Industry.”
