our new quarter

Washington State now has our quarter design chosen. This design won a three-way online vote with 45%. It also had the backing of the committee headed by the acting governor's husband.

Luckily, this design's the best of the three in the vote. Surprising, actually. Not too busy, not obscure. Maybe the fish could be a bit smaller, but close enough.



But it's really too bad that the US Mint refused to allow images of people's heads/busts on these quarters. I really wanted a coin with Washington's profile on both sides!
