Obverse
At the center stands a regal woman in an elegant 19th-century Mexican dress. Her embroidered skirt symbolizes the union of Indigenous, Spanish, and Mexican traditions that gave Arizona its roots. Surrounding her, desert life flourishes with Arizona state symbols: the saguaro blossom blooms with resilience; the cactus wren sings with resourcefulness; and the two-tailed swallowtail drifts gracefully across the scene. A desert tortoise and javelina at her feet reflect endurance. Corn, chiles, and prickly pear honor the land’s generosity and the Mexican families who cultivated it.

Comments
Privately issued, voluntary local currency. These are technically specie legal tender in states that have Goldbacks, due to the wording in local legislation. Not to be confused for US dollars.
Alphas (denotes by “α” mark by the date) are a limited edition version only issued on the first year of release for a given state. Note that Utah, Nevada, and New Hampshire did not get alpha releases.
