In a state known for its maple syrup, its maple sugar, and its excellent skiing, is it any wonder that these would be represented on the state quarter? Vermont chose to highlight these most important industries by depicting a man tending his sap buckets with Camel's Hump Mountain in the background. Camel's Hump, one of the highest mountains in the Green Mountain State, is so named because of its two "humps" reminiscent of the Bactrian Camel of Turkestan and Mongolia... a long way from Vermont! The design also offers the Vermont State Motto "Freedom and Unity" and the year Vermont entered the Union; 1791. Vermont was the first state admitted to the Union after the original 13 colonies.
