According to the
U.S. Mint's official website, Iowa became the 29th state to be admitted
into the Union. The Iowa quarter design features a one-room schoolhouse
with a teacher and students planting a tree, and the inscriptions "Foundation
in Education" and "Grant Wood." The design is based on
"Arbor Day," a painting by Grant Wood, who was born near Anamosa,
Iowa. He spent his career as a proponent of small-town values, which he
celebrated in the iconic images of small-town plain folk and verdant Midwestern
vistas for which he is world-renowned. We have available State Quarters and Coin Packages for Beginner and Advanced Collectors! See our Selections!
