Georgia State Quarter
Year of issue: 1999
The Georgia State Quarter is the fourth coin in the 50 State Quarters Program. The U.S. Mint released it on July 19, 1999 as the fourth quarter of the year. The reverse design shows a peach (the state symbol), branches of a live oak tree (the state tree), and the state motto "Wisdom, Justice, Moderation" over an outline of the state.
The obverse (heads) design shows the familiar portrait of George Washington used on the quarter since 1932. But the inscriptions previously used on the reverse – "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA", "QUARTER DOLLAR", "LIBERTY", and "IN GOD WE TRUST" – all appear on the obverse in order to accommodate the state designs.
