Looking for a unique holiday gift? Community State Bank's commemorative coins honoring Iowa State University coaches make perfect stocking stuffers!
The 2008 Commemorative Coin salutes Men’s Basketball Coach Greg McDermott, a coach whose values in life translate into success on the court.
The $15 coins are available only at CSB’s 10 locations in the Des Moines metro area. Part of the proceeds will benefit Coaches vs. Cancer, a joint charity of the American Cancer Society and the National Association of Basketball Coaches.
The 2008 McDermott coin follows the 2007 Gene Chizik coin, inspired in part by Chizik’s inaugural season as football coach. Both coins will be part of a complete set when the ISU coin series ends in 2010. A limited number of Chizik coins are still available.
The 1-3/4” collector’s coins feature an embossed image of the coach on one side and Cyclone logo on the other. Available in either a solid antiqued gold or red inlaid finish, the coin and its velour jeweler’s box retail for $15 (plus tax).
As part of the commemorative coin promotion, CSB will sponsor a Big 12 basketball game in conjunction with Coaches vs. Cancer, as well as sponsoring the official coin toss at all ISU home football games during the 2008 season.
