<p>[QUOTE="crystalk64, post: 30558, member: 1873"]Well, in the beginning, the whole program was about statehood so I (we) were looking for history from way back when. After the 99 issues things kind of went array and everything except the kitchen has shown up. My favorite is Massachusettes---The Minute Man with his rifle, ready to defend the state with his life. Nothing say's more about our beginning. I have actually heard that there were those poor misguided folks up there who ACTUALLY wanted the rifle removed? What was he going to carry then? A rubber band pistol? Like it or not muzzleloaders, rifles and revelovers played an important role in the developement of this country. Our ancestors could not have survived without them so a big cheer for the Mass. Statehood Quarter for keeping the real "truth" on the obverse of their quarter. My next pick would be Kansas as the buffalo also played many parts through our early history and they WERE NOT DEMOCRATS, WIGS, REPUBLICANS or INDEPENDENTS! THANKS to the folks in KANSAS for keeping something REAL on their quarter.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
