The 50 stamp designs that make up the Greetings From America Collection represent the U.S. Governments tribute to each U.S. State.
California became a state in 1850 just a year after the start of the great gold rush
and now has the highest population of any state. The Greetings From California stamp features the Bay Bridge in the evening, with its suspension cables outlined by lights and the San Francisco skyline gleaming in the distance. Palm trees from Santa Catalina Island and two golden poppy blossoms (the state flower) complete the design.
The Lone Star
state of Texas became the 28th state when it joined the Union in 1845. The central image of the Greetings From Texas stamp is the Alamo in San Antonio. In 1836, over 180 Americans defending the Alamo including Jim Bowie and Davy Crockett were massacred by Mexican troops. The Alamo became a rallying point in Texas independence. Also shown on the stamp is a yellow rose (from the famous Texas song "The Yellow Rose of Texas") and a Texas longhorn.
New York was one of the original 13 colonies that formed the United States, and it was the 11th state to ratify the Constitution and join the Union. The Greetings From New York stamp features three of the best-known landmarks in the state: the Manhattan skyline, the Statue of Liberty, and Niagara Falls. The spotlights beaming from the Manhattan skyline symbolize New York as a world-renowned center of theatrical activity.
Created to the Highest Proof Standards
The production of each stamp ingot is meticulously crafted by the world's most skilled artists and minters.
The painstaking process starts with a steel minting die that is the exact size of the original stamp. When the craftsmen are satisfied that the master die is flawless, only then is it placed into a massive proofing press. Polished pure silver blanks are carefully placed by hand into the press and are struck one at a time to create proof-like silver ingots.
Perforations are precision diamond cut, and the colorized image of the original stamp is then applied. The colorization is the highest quality in the world, and it brilliantly captures every tiny detail of the original design. This is the first time the United States Postal Service has authorized colorized stamp ingots, and the result is a collection of stunning masterpieces.
As a subscriber to the Greetings From America Collection, you will also receive several gifts at no additional cost. The lacquered wood collector's chest, jeweler's cloth, and cotton gloves will be sent in the early stages of your collection, while the fact cards will accompany each shipment and can be safely stored in the specially designed album.
