Virtually impossible if you are not an American, especially as you have to do them in order.

The bird is a scissor-tailed flycatcher, which is the state bird of OK. (Which if you didn't recognize it or know the state bird isn't helpful, but now you know!)

It's also almost exactly the same design as is on their license plate, which is the only reason I got it.

This was fun. I'm surprised so few people got Nebraska. I guess Chimney Rock isn't as famous as I thought.

I think a lot of this has to do with the fact that people associate Nebraska, a prairie state, with wide-open, flat spaces and not with rock formations. Admittedly, I got it through memories of playing Oregon Trail and having the other obvious states along the trail appear elsewhere on the quiz.

You have to wonder about the thought process that went into choosing the Oklahoma design - "Let's make an outstanding design that shows our uniqueness and things for which we are famous." "How about a bird and some flowers?" "Yeah!" "Oh, and add a mountain because everyone automatically thinks of mountains when Oklahoma is mentioned."

The bird is a Scissor-tail fly catcher. I would not have gotten that one if I didn't live there.

Half of the state quarters are some random collection of state symbols lol. Also, no mountains on the quarter.

Would you prefer "Remember that time y'all ethnic cleansed the east coast? Well we're still here!"

Got 'em all except New Jersey, because I completely forgot about New Jersey. I tried every other state in New England, then tried every state going down the eastern seaboard. Sorry, New Jersey.

For anyone who likes this quiz, there is a new quarters quiz created for the new designs that are being minted from 2010-2021. They are the America the Beautiful quarters, which one national park, forest, monument, etc is selected from each state, the five main territories (Northern Mariana Islands, Guam, US Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, and American Samoa) as well as Washington DC for the quarter series.

I understand the very landlocked state of Arkansas doesn't have much else to brag about besides being on the Mississippi, but the water imagery was a bit confusing.

Apparently Arkansas has 600,000 natural lakes... so I guess it's fitting to put one on the quarter....

Personally I only recognize get it b/c of the diamond... I don't know why diamonds are strongly associated with Arkansas but they are.
