这一枚是Ｄｅｌａｗａｒｅ州，１７８７年最早加如联邦的第一州，在图案上可以看到ｔｈｅ　ｆｉｒｓｔ　ｓｔａｔｅ，骑马的是该州的议会长Ｃａｅｓａｒ　Ｒｏｄｎｅｙ，图案是以他当日冒着大雨骑马８０英里赶到费城，第二天，他准时到达独立厅，投下了美国独立的决定性一票 Rodney rode eighty miles through a thunderstorm on the night of July 1, 1776, dramatically arriving in Philadelphia "in his boots and spurs" on July 2, just as the voting was beginning. At least part of Rodney's famous ride was probably made in a carriage. He voted with McKean and thereby allowed Delaware to join eleven other states in voting in favor of the resolution of independence. The wording of the Declaration of Independence was approved two days later, and Rodney signed the famous parchment copy on August 2. A conservative backlash in Delaware led to Rodney's electoral defeat in Kent County for a seat in the upcoming Delaware Constitutional Convention and the new Delaware General Assembly. h4v6sY

Wyoming州,1890成立, 图案是骑野马 Wyoming's original Statehood date was July 10, 1890. The outline of the bucking horse and rider represent Wyoming's Wild West heritage. The state was a popular destination for pioneers traveling on the Oregon Trail. The state's nickname, "The Equality State," is derived from the fact that Wyoming was the first state to establish equal voting rights for women. h4v6sY
