Wisconsin State Quarter: History & Background

The Wisconsin quarter features a cow, a wheel of cheese, and an ear of corn, representing the state's leading role in America's dairy industry. Wisconsin is known as 'America's Dairyland' and produces more cheese than any other state. This quarter is especially notable among collectors for the 'Extra Leaf' die error varieties (high leaf and low leaf) discovered on some Denver mint coins.

How to Grade a Wisconsin State Quarter

Accurate grading is the single most important factor in determining a coin's value. A difference of just a few grade points can mean 10× or more in value. Examine the highest points of the design first — these are where wear appears earliest. For the finest grades, luster, strike quality, and surface preservation all matter. Professional grading by PCGS or NGC adds certainty and typically increases resale value. Read our complete grading guide →
