Cut-Out Coin Jewelry - New York The first state quarter of 2001 belongs to New York, the eleventh state to enter the union in 1788. The eleven states of the time are represented by eleven stars. The Statue of Liberty, superimposed over an outlining of New York state, is shown as the "Gateway To Freedom" celebrating the Empire State as a point of entry for millions of immigrants seeking the political freedom and democracy that American citizenship provides. Lines tracing the Hudson River and Erie Canal are etched into the state's outline. These two important waterways were not included in the original design. They were added at Governor Pataki's request to pay tribute to their importance in the state's development. Source: United States Mint Wow! New York! Diversity and contrast, that's New York.
