Indiana State Quarters


Indiana State Quarters are the 19th variety in a series of fifty design changes over a ten year period from 1999 to 2008. This Quarter was released into circulation on August 2, 2002. The primary images on the reverse are a textured outline of the state and a racecar. Indiana is very well known for the Indianapolis 500. It is the oldest car race in the world, dating back to 1911. The reverse also has nineteen stars arranged in a semi-circle to signify Indiana as the nineteenth state to enter the union.

The obverse of the coin is identical on all coins in this series. It features a portrait of George Washington with the inscriptions "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA", "QUARTER DOLLAR", "LIBERTY" and "IN GOD WE TRUST" arranged around the portrait.

The reverse of the coin bears the inscriptions "INDIANA 1816", "CROSSROADS OF AMERICA", and "E PLURIBUS UNUM" along with the date of 2002.
