The Red Cross Teams up with Rosland Capital

The American Red Cross is working with Rosland Capital in the month of October! Rosland will donate $1 to the Red Cross for every Peace Dollar Silver Coin that they sell.

The Peace Dollar was minted from 1921 to 1928 and then again in 1934 and 1935. The Pittman Act of 1918 required in part that the United States strike millions of silver dollars. The U.S. Mint started with the Morgan Dollar; however, numismatists petitioned the government to issue a coin symbolic of peace following World War I. Anthony de Francisci was one of eight prominent sculptors invited to take part in a contest to design the Peace Dollar. He won after using his wife as a model to depict Lady Liberty.

The American Red Cross was the ideal partner for our organization,” Rosland Capital CEO Marin Aleksov said. “Rosland Capital is deeply committed to helping active military and veterans nationally and in the local Santa Monica community, and Red Cross’ services in these areas are unmatched.”
