Ćwierćdolarówki z 50 amerykańskimi stanami
Ćwierćdolarówki z 50 amerykańskimi stanami – seria monet dwudziestopięciocentowych emitowana przez Mennicę Stanów Zjednoczonych. Seria ta była bita w latach 1999-2008, z pięćdziesięciu różnymi wzorami na rewersie i jednym wspólnym wzorem z podobizną pierwszego prezydenta Jerzego Waszyngtona na awersie[1][2].
Program emisyjny miał stać się pomocą w zainteresowaniu numizmatyką nowej generacji obywateli[3]. Cieszył się wielkim sukcesem i okazał się najlepszym tego typu programem w historii kraju: połowa obywateli Stanów Zjednoczonych zbierała emitowane w tej serii ćwierćdolarówki, zarówno poprzez stały abonament, jak i przypadkowo kolekcjonując monety znajdujące się w obiegu[4]. Bank federalny zarobił 4,6 miliarda dolarów dzięki tzw. rencie emisyjnej[5].
Historia
Projekt programu emisyjnego zrodził się podczas zebrań Obywatelskiego Komitetu Doradczego ds Monet Okolicznościowych (ang. Citizens Commemorative Coin Advisory Committee), który ukonstytuował się w grudniu 1993. Komitet zatwierdził monetę obiegową w 1995. Projekt spotkał się z życzliwym przyjęciem kongresmena Michael N. Castle, który promował ustawę emisyjną w kongresie. Program emisyjny został zatwierdzony przez prezydenta Billa Clintona 1 grudnia 1997. Pierwsza moneta z serii, upamiętniająca stan Delaware, weszła do obiegu w 1999. 51% monet z tej serii było wybitych w mennicy w Filadelfii, zaś pozostałe w mennicy w Denver[6].
Projekt emisyjny
Program zakładał emisję pięciu monet na rok. Symbole konkretnego stanu miały znaleźć się na rewersie monet. Element związany z tradycją lub historią stanu miał być zaprojektowany, jeśli to tylko było możliwe, przez artystę mieszkającego na jego terenie. Każdy z projektów zatwierdzały władze stanowe. Sekwencja emisyjna miała odzwierciedlać kolejność przystępowania stanów do unii[7].
Pod koniec 2008 ukończono emisję wszystkich monet z serii. Wybito w sumie 34 797 600 000 monet. Na każdy ze stanów przypadło średnio 695 952 000 sztuk. Najwięcej monet wybito dla upamiętnienia stanu Virginia – 1 594 616 000, najmniej dla upamiętnienia Oklahomy – 416 600 000. Współczynnik różnicy wyniósł 3,83. Podobną liczbę monet wybito dla stanów Missouri i Wisconsin – około 453 200 000 monet.

Wartość kolekcjonerska
Podczas gdy liczba wybitych ćwierćdolarówek jest tak różnorodna – monet Wirginii jest prawie dwadzieścia razy więcej niż wybitych w następnej serii monety upamiętniającej Mariany Północne – żadna z tych obiegowych monet nie stała się na tyle rzadką, by osiągnąć znaczącą wartość kolekcjonerską.
Zainteresowanie kolekcjonerów wzbudziła moneta upamiętniająca stan Wisconsin z błędami powstałymi przy biciu monety w mennicy. Niektóre monety posiadają kolbę kukurydzy bez mniejszych liści, niektóre mają listek zakrzywiony ku górze, podczas gdy inne mają liście skierowane ku dołowi[10].
W 2005 wybito ćwierćdolarówki stanu Minnesota z dodatkowymi drzewami. W 2006 pojawiły się monety upamiętniające Kansas ze zgarbionym bizonem. Istnieją też monety Kansas z brakującą literą „T” w napisie, co w efekcie dało wezwanie: „IN GOD WE RUST”[11].
