Wisconsin State Quarter

The Wisconsin quarter is the 30th in the 50 State Quarters Program. On May 29, 1848, Wisconsin became the 30th state to be admitted into the Union. The Wisconsin design depicts an agricultural theme, featuring the head a cow, a round of cheese, and an ear of corn. The design also bears an inscription of the State motto, "Forward."

Wisconsin adopted the State motto, "Forward," in 1851, reflecting the state's continuous drive to be a national leader. Wisconsin produces more than 15 percent of the Nation's milk and more than 350 varieties, types and styles of award–winning of cheeses. Wisconsin is also a major corn producer. State corn production contributed $882.4 million to the Wisconsin economy in 2003.

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 agricultural theme which features the head of a cow, a round of cheese and an ear of corn.
