GOLDCOIN 
The Goldcoin variety, including its synonyms, principally Fortyfold 
and Number 6, comprised more than 23 per cent of the acreage of the 
white wheat class grown in the United States in 1924. This variety is 
widely grown both in the Eastern and Western States, as shown in

Fig. 
Distribution of Goldcoin wheat in 1919. Estimated area, 949,300 acres 
Figure 75 for 1919 and Figure 76 for 1924. It is sown only as a winter 
wheat. The proportion of the acreage of Goldcoin to the total wheat 
acreage of the United States was almost the same in 1919 and 1924, 
which indicates that Goldcoin neither is increasing nor decreasing. 
Goldcoin has increased in importance in Michigan and Xew York, 
decreased in Oregon and Washington, and maintained about the same 
relative position in Idaho. These are the principal States in which 
it is grown.
