2022 Vermont American Innovation Dollar (Buy on eBay) is dedicated to the sport of snowboarding, which has become increasingly popular in recent years.
Vermont has significantly shaped the evolution of snowboarding since its early days. The state’s varied terrain and challenging winters attracted pioneers of the sport, leading to its global accessibility and success. Vermont-based events and companies also played a crucial role in snowboarding’s acceptance nationwide and creating global exposure. In addition, several technological advancements contributing to the sport’s evolution were also born in Vermont.
The reverse design features a young snowboarder in the air performing a trick called a “melon grab,” set against a winter skyline reminiscent of Vermont’s mountainous landscape. The design captures the lively spirit of snowboarding, conveying movement through diagonal lines and curved shapes. This side also has inscriptions for “VERMONT” and “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.” The design was created by AIP artist Justin Kunz and sculpted by Medallic Artist Craig Campbell.
