Nebraska’s State Quarter

Nebraska’s quarter depicts an ox-drawn covered wagon carrying pioneers in the foreground and Chimney Rock, the natural wonder that rises from the valley of North Platte River, measuring 445 feet from base to tip. The sun is in full view behind the wagon.

The coin also bears the inscriptions “Nebraska,” “Chimney Rock” and “1867.” Chimney Rock, National Historic Site. Chimney Rock, designated a National Historic Site on August 9, 1956, and is maintained and operated by the Nebraska State Historical Society.

America’s Westward Expansion

Practically anywhere travelers go in Nebraska they will encounter reminders of America’s westward expansion. The Oregon and Mormon Trails, the Pony Express, the Lewis and Clark Trail, the Texas-Ogallala Trail, and the Sidney-Deadwood Trail crisscross the state.

The Nebraska State Quarter Design Committee accepted nearly 6,500 quarter design ideas from citizens. Four of these were forwarded to the United States Mint and were used as the basis for narrative designs that were created by United States Mint sculptor-engravers and artists in the United States Mint’s Artistic Infusion Program.

Nebraska Governor Dave Heineman announced his recommendation of “Chimney Rock” on June 1, 2005. The Department of the Treasury approved the design on July 20, 2005. The three other design concepts considered during the final selection process were:

1. “The Capitol,” featuring a rendition of the architecturally striking State Capitol in Lincoln
2. “The Sower,” depicting the figure that stands atop the Nebraska Capitol, representing Nebraska’s standing as an agricultural leader
3. “Chief Standing Bear,” paying tribute to the Ponca Indian Chief.
