1999 ushered in a new era for the United States Mint Set coin program. For the next 10 years, the mint would pay tribute to each state by honoring them with their own legal tender quarter! They would issue 5 states per year and produce them at both the Philadelphia and Denver Mints for the Mint Sets. Coins would be released in the same order with which the state joined the Union.
The State Quarters released in 2000 were:
- Massachusetts
- Maryland
- South Carolina
- New Hampshire
- Virginia
