Arizona State Quarter

The Arizona quarter is the 48th coin in the 50 State Quarters Program.. The reverse (tails side) of the Arizona quarter features an image of the Grand Canyon with a Saguaro cactus in the foreground. A banner reading "Grand Canyon State" separates the two images to signify that the Saguaro cactus does not grow in the Grand Canyon. The coin also bears the inscriptions "Arizona" and "1912," the year Arizona was admitted into the Union.

The obverse (heads) design features the familiar image of George Washington by John Flanagan, used on the quarter since 1932.

The reverse (tails) design features an image of the Grand Canyon with a Saguaro cactus in the foreground.
