Iowans are being reminded by the State Treasurer to check the Great Iowa Treasure Hunt for unclaimed items. More than $71-million has been added in the most recent reporting cycle with nearly 550,000 properties. According to the Treasurer’s Office, that is more than 10-times the previous record set in 2024 with more than $6 million.
The Great Iowa Treasure Hunt provides Iowans a way to claim items like a lost check, bank account, or utility refund. An estimated one in seven Iowans have funds in the Great Iowa Treasure Hunt.
