Could you elaborate on the Hawaii statehood coin? I'm curious to know its significance, design, and historical context. Is it a commemorative coin issued by the US Mint? What year was it released? Does it feature any notable imagery or inscriptions that reflect Hawaii's unique identity? How popular has it been among collectors? I'm also interested in knowing if there are any plans for future Hawaii-themed coins or if this was a one-time release. Thank you for your insights.

As with all coins in the Statehood Quarters series, this one was clad. Clad coins are composed of multiple metals, in this case, seventy-five to eighty percent copper, with the remaining portion made of nickel.

On the reverse side of the coin, an inscription was etched, reading “Hawaii 1959 – Ua Mau Ke Ea O Ka Aina I Ka Pono – 2008 – E Pluribus Unum.” This text captured the essence of Hawaii's history and values.

The phrase "Ua Mau Ke Ea O Ka Aina I Ka Pono" translates to "The life of the land is perpetuated in righteousness," reflecting Hawaii's deep connection to its land and culture.

The use of clad metals for these coins was a cost-saving measure that also provided the coins with durability and resistance to wear. This combination of metals gave the Statehood Quarters a unique appearance and feel.
