OVERVIEW
American Coin Toss is a new kind of coin flipping application; it combines State Quarters, Flags and Trivia in one place. There are four themes to choose from, Black, Patriotic, State, and Random, and the game also keeps track of your coin flipping statistics as you play.
STATE QUARTERS
Launched in 1999, the United States Mints 50 State Quarters Program was a 10-year initiative that honored each of the nations states in the order that they ratified the Constitution or were admitted into the Union. Each quarter was produced for about 10 weeks and will never be produced again. State designs are displayed on the reverse (tails) of the quarters, while the obverse design displays the familiar image of George Washington. But, to accommodate state designs on the reverse, the words "United States of America," "Quarter Dollar," "Liberty," and "In God We Trust" all appear on the obverse. Download the individual informational pages of all the 50 State Quarters. "Quoted from the US Mint"
