WISCONSIN STATE QUARTER
 Wisconsin's Commemorative Quarter was released on October 25, 2004.
The design on Wisconsin's coin features the head of a Holstein cow, a partial wheel of cheese and an ear of corn.
Read about the quarter and see a few proposed designs that did not make it to the coin. Also, visit Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions Some argue that our commemorative quarter is not real indicative of all that our state has to offer. In addition to our agricultural and dairy heritage, Wisconsin is quickly becoming the Silicon Valley of the Midwest. Also visit: Wisconsin Quarter and State Symbols. If you find this site to be somewhat useful or creative and you're feeling generous, please help us to maintain and improve its content. Thank you.
