State Treasurer Roby Smith is celebrating the holiday season by encouraging all Rudolphs, Santas and Frostys to search for their unclaimed property. “There might not be any Scrooges or Grinches listed, but we have hundreds of Iowans with other holiday-themed names in Great Iowa Treasure Hunt,” said Smith. “We put together a short list of examples, and found one with over $1,900 to claim. Take a look, and visit GreatIowaTreasureHunt.gov to start your search today.”

Great Iowa Treasure Hunt is the State’s only legitimate unclaimed property program in Iowa. Each year, money and other assets are turned over to the State Treasurer’s Office after they are unclaimed for a specific period of time. The Office then holds the funds indefinitely in Great Iowa Treasure Hunt until the owner or heir comes forward to claim.
Examples of unclaimed property include funds from inactive checking and savings accounts, uncashed checks, lost stocks and bonds, utility security refunds and insurance benefits. There are even valuables from abandoned safe deposit boxes.
For more information, visit GreatIowaTreasureHunt.gov or connect with the Treasurer on Facebook, Instagram and X.
