Brief Description

The coin displays the Maryland State House dome surrounded by oak branches. Inscriptions include "MARYLAND 1788," "THE OLD LINE STATE," "2000," and "E PLURIBUS UNUM."

Historical Significance

This is part of the U.S. Mint's 50 State Quarters Program, which celebrated each U.S. state. Maryland was the 7th state admitted to the Union, and this quarter commemorates that event and features a prominent Maryland landmark, the State House.

Estimated Value

Typically face value ($0.25) unless in uncirculated condition or a special variety, which could be slightly higher.

Care Instructions

Handle by the edges to avoid transferring oils from your skin, which can damage the coin's surface. Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a coin holder or album designed for coin storage.
