When gold was discovered near Juneau, prospectors began flocking to Alaska.
In 1896, prospector William A. Dickey named the mountain after presidential
nominee William McKinley.
(The native Athabaskans called it Denali, which means “The Great One” or “The High One.”)

On August 30, 2015, Sally Jewell announced that the mountain would be renamed Denali,
under authority of federal law which permits her as Secretary of the Interior to name geographic features
if the Board of Geographic Names does not act within a "reasonable" period of time. In media interviews,
Jewell cited the board's failure to act on the state's four-decade-old request, saying
"I think any of us would think that 40 years is an unreasonable amount of time.

Similar to stock photos. Plate numbers and block position may vary.
Stamps maybe mint, might have minor bends or crease,
Great for postage, not necessarily for collecting.
