US State Quarters Educational Poster 24x36
This poster is 24" x 36" and makes the perfect addition to a classroom, study, or children's bedroom.
The 50 State Quarters Program was started to support a new generation of coin collectors. President George Washington is shown on the face of each quarter, but the reverse commemorates one of the 50 states with a design representing its unique history, traditions, or symbols. The quarters were released by the United States Mint every ten weeks, or five each year, beginning in 1999. They were released in the same order that the states ratified the Constitution. In 2009, the U.S. Mint began issuing quarters commemorating the District of Columbia and the U.S. Territories. Although authorized by a different legislative act, these quarters are often seen as an extension of the 50 State Quarters Program. The poster shows both sets.
The U.S. State Quarters became the most successful numismatic program in history. The U.S. Mint states that roughly half of the U.S. population collects the coins either casually or seriously. The U.S. federal government has realized profits of over $3 billion from collectors taking the coins out of circulation.
