The State Quarter Program concluded in 2008 with the final five designs in the series. Coins were issued to honor Oklahoma, New Mexico, Arizona, Alaska, and Hawaii. The final five designs were an excellent way to end the series. Each State Quarter design was striking and well defined. They primarily focus on a single element rather than the middle year quarters which were often conglomerations of symbols.
