Reverse Description
The Dutch Harbor coin has two elements, a military bunker, and Forget-me-not flowers. The military bunker comes from Dutch Harbor’s Bunker hill, a leftover from World War II and now a popular hiking spot in Unalaska. The flower is not only Alaska’s state flower but also can be found all around Unalaska Island.2021 Tokns - Unalaska/Dutch Harbor

From digital to graphite, pottery to photography, Hannah likes it all. Having lived in Alaska for the last ten years, there is nowhere like Alaska for vistas and communities. The state inspires.
