The Illinois State Treasurer’s Office is looking for an artist to design a coin to commemorate the 100th anniversary of giving women the right to vote.
Senate Joint Resolution 28 authorizes the state treasurer to issue a coin to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the ratification of the 19th Amendment.
The Commemorative Medallions Act authorizes the state treasurer to issue medallions or coins to commemorate popular events of statewide interest.
The 19th Amendment was officially ratified on August 18, 1920.
The deadline to submit proposals is December 18th. More information on how to submit is available at the state treasurer’s website.
