Cut-Out Coin Jewelry - Ohio The Ohio State Quarter is the second quarter to be released in 2002 and the 17th in the 50 State Quarters? Program of the United States Mint. Against an outline of the state, the images on the reverse of the quarter honor Ohio's contributions to aviation. A rendition of the Wright brothers' 1905 Flyer III, considered to be the first true airplane because of its ability to take off, land, bank and turn is shown along with a suited astronaut. An inscription reads "Birthplace of Aviation Pioneers." One of the first men to fly, Orville Wright, was born in Ohio. The first American to orbit the earth, John Glenn, was born in Ohio. The first man to walk on the moon, Neil Armstrong was born in Ohio. The inscription seems apt. The date on the coin, 1803, is the year that Ohio became part of the United States.
