Zebulon Pike reported gold in Colorado in present day Park County, Colorado as early as 1807, but it wasnt until rich discoveries near Denver in 1858 that sparked the Pikes Peak Gold Rush. Since then, gold mining has been a major industry in Colorado, with significant lode and placer discoveries throughout the state. Over 1 million ounces of gold has come out of Summit County in central Colorado, both as lode and placer deposits.
Soon after gold was discovered near Denver, the region around Pikes Peak became the Colorado Territory. Other names, such as Colona, Jefferson, Osage and even Idaho, were suggested and discarded in favor of Colorado, Spanish for red in reference to the color of the water of the Colorado River.he Colorado quarter depicts a sweeping view of the state's rugged Rocky Mountains with evergreen trees and a banner carrying the inscription Colorful Colorado..
