WASHINGTON - The United States Mint announced today that the Wyoming commemorative quarter-dollar coins will go on sale Tuesday, September 4, at noon (ET), and will be available for approximately 10 weeks. The Wyoming quarter-dollar is offered in two-roll sets (40 coins per roll) that include one roll each from the United States Mint at Philadelphia and Denver, and in bags of 100 and 1,000 coins.

The Wyoming quarter is the fourth coin in the United States Mint's 50 State Quarters® Program released in 2007. Wyoming was admitted into the Union on July 10, 1890, becoming our Nation's 44th state. The coin's reverse features a bucking horse and rider, symbolizing the State's Wild West heritage. Inscribed on the coin is Wyoming's nickname, "The Equality State," which recognizes the State's historic role in establishing equal voting rights for women. Additional inscriptions include "Wyoming" and "1890."

Priced at $32.95, each coin roll in the two-roll set is wrapped in a specially designed United States Mint paper coin wrap that features the 50 State Quarters Program logo, a "P" or "D" denoting the roll's mint of origin, "WY" designating the State of Wyoming, and "$10" representing its dollar value. Each bag of Wyoming quarters is marked with the mint of origin and the dollar value of its contents ($25 or $250). The bags of 100 coins are offered at $32.95, and the bags of 1,000 coins are offered at $309.95. These bags and two-roll sets feature quarters, used in regular circulation, that were struck on our main production floors at the United States Mints at Philadelphia and Denver. There is no order limit on these products.
