2008 42¢ Flags of Our Nation
Arkansas Coin Cover
Arkansas Coin Cover
This Flags of Our Nation Coin Cover features the Arkansas stamp from the Flags of Our Nation Series, two uncirculated state quarters, and a cachet, or picture, that reflects the history of the state.
When the members of the Pine Bluff chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution discovered that Arkansas was without a state flag, the women decided to create one. The winner of the statewide contest was Miss Willie Hocker of Wabbaseka. Her design was officially adopted as the Arkansas State Flag on February 26, 1913. The design features a white diamond on a red field, recognizing Arkansas as the only diamond-producing state at the time of the flag’s creation. The blue band with 25 stars represents Arkansas’ role as the 25th state of the Union. The three stars below the state name represent the countries formerly owning the territory. The lone top star is representative of Arkansas’ membership in the Confederate States of America.
Arkansas’ State Quarter, issued in 2003, features rice stalks, a diamond, and a mallard duck soaring above a lake. “The Natural State” has more than 600,000 acres of lakes. Mallard hunting is a prime attraction for hunters across the country. Arkansas is home to the oldest diamond mine in North America. The state is also the leading U.S. producer of rice. W.H. Fuller first harvested the grain in Arkansas in 1904.
Featured on the 2008 Arkansas Flags of Our Nation Coin First Day Cover is the city of Hot Springs. During the Reconstruction of the 1870s, numerous bathhouses and hotels were built, making it the popular tourist destination it is today.
