The second commemorative quarter-dollar coin released in 2006 honors Nebraska, and is the 37th coin in the United States Mint's 50 State Quarters Â® Program. Nebraska, nicknamed the Cornhusker State, was admitted into the Union on March 1, 1867, becoming our Nation's 37th state.
The name would be used again, this time to refer to Nebraska by Charles Cy Sherman in The Nebraska State Journal during the 1899 season and would replace all other names by 1900. The Cornhuskers have two official mascots, Herbie Husker and Lil' Red.
