About this Product Full Product Name
 
The 50 State Quarters program is only the third commemorative Quarter Program in the U.S. Mints history. The first commemorative quarter was issued in 1893 to celebrate the 400th anniversary of Christopher Columbus discovery of the New World. The coins will be released in the order in which the states joined the Union and each coins reverse will feature a one-time only design that was selected by the state. The design will be a representation of the states history and culture.

Wyoming was the fourth of the five states to be featured on a State Quarter in 2007. It was also the 44th coin in the collection that will eventually honor all 50 States. The state quarters series started in 1999 will come to an end in 2008 with the final 5 coins.All State Quarters minted for circulation are struck at both the Philadelphia Mint and the Denver Mint. Wyoming Governor Dave Freudenthal formed the Wyoming Coinage Advisory Committee in 2004 to select the design for the 2007 Wyoming State Quarter then on May 12, 2006, Freudenthal selected the bucking horse and rider design with the state nickname, The Equality State. The Equality State refers to the fact that Wyoming was the first territory and the first state to extend full voting rights to women.

Each uncirculated quarter is layered 7 times in pure 24 karat gold. Each coin is encapsulated to protect it's condition.

In December 1997, America's most adventurous coin program became a reality when President Clinton signed legislation authorizing the U.S. Mint to issue the innovative 50 State Quarters collection. Starting in January 1999, each of the 50 states in the Union will be honored on a unique Quarter Dollar commemorative coin. The mint marks can be found to the right of George Washington's portrait on the obverse: the small "P" indicates the Philadelphia Mint and the small "D" refers to the Denver.
