| Additional information |
New York's quarter, released in 2001 as part of the 50 State Quarters Program, commemorates the state that ratified the Constitution only after Alexander Hamilton and John Jay — alongside Madison — published the Federalist Papers specifically to overcome fierce anti-federalist resistance within New York's political class. The state joined in 1788 by a margin of just three votes.
Philadelphia and Denver both struck this issue in quantity, with San Francisco producing proof versions. Clad planchets for the series were supplied under contracts that kept production running at a pace no previous commemorative program had matched.
