Michigan State Quarter
Year of issue: 2004
he Michigan State quarter was released on January 26, 2004, exactly 167 years after the state became the 26th state admitted into the Union. Michigan, who was admitted into the Union on January 26, 1837, themed the coin Great Lakes State. This quarter is the 26th coin released in the 50 State Quarters Program and the first released in 2004. It highlights an outline of Michigan and the Great Lakes system.
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.
