Vermont State Quarter

The Vermont quarter, the 4th quarter in the 2001 50 State Quarters® Program, features Camel's Hump Mountain with an image of maple trees with sap buckets in the forefront.

The design honors the "Green Mountain State," the first state admitted to the Union after the original 13 colonies. Vermont is most famous for its skiing and the production of maple sugar and syrup. Until the 1800s when cane sugar was introduced, Americans relied on Vermont's maple sugar for much of its sugar supply. Also featured on the quarter is Camel's Hump Mountain in the northern half of Vermont's Green Mountains. Camel's Hump is easily recognized by its unique double-humped profile and is one of the highest peaks in Vermont.

Colorized State Quarters

Colorized state quarters are uncirculated coins that are US-minted for each US state. These are coins that can add a new dimension to coin collection. These are commemorative quarters with unique designs that honor the history, tradition as well as the symbols that depict each of the fifty states of the US. The designs on the reverse of the quarter are usually done by a state resident and approved by the state government. Five designs were released per year and the complete set for all of the fifty states came out from 1999 to 2008. There are almost thirty five billion colorized state quarters that have been released.
