Appointed by Governor Janet Napolitano, the 24-member Arizona State Quarter Commission is comprised of individuals from across Arizona. They were charged with developing narrative design concepts to present to the United States Mint and make recommendations to the Governor for the final design of the Arizona State Quarter. Arizonans with backgrounds in the arts, humanities, history, education, finance and business as well as the general public, representing the geographic and demographic diversity of the state, were selected to serve on the Commission. Governor Napolitano specifically appointed a 4th grade student to ensure that students were involved in the process. Commissioners received input from individuals across Arizona and have carefully considered more than 4,200 suggestions for the Arizona quarter. From these suggestions they decided on the final five designs.
