1 dollar USA Iowa 2026 – Green Revolution

The “America’s Innovations” coin series celebrates Iowa’s contributions to agriculture and global food security. The issue’s theme is the achievements of Norman Borlaug, an Iowa native known as the “Father of the Green Revolution.” He developed high-yielding, disease-resistant wheat varieties, which significantly increased food production and saved millions of people worldwide from hunger.

The reverse of the Iowa coin depicts Dr. Norman Borlaug holding a sheaf of wheat. The obverse features one of America’s most important symbols—the Statue of Liberty.
