The Arkansas quarter shows the images of rice stalks, a diamond, and a mallard gracefully flying above a lake. Arkansas, known as the "Natural State", has an abundance of clear streams, rivers and lakes. Arkansas is also known for mallard hunting as a main attraction for hunters across the nation. Visitors to Arkansas can also search Crater of Diamonds State Park for precious gems including, of course, diamonds. This mine at Crater of Diamonds State Park reportedly is the oldest diamond mine in North America, and the only one in the United States open to the public-visitors get to keep what they find. The first commercially successful rice crop was also in Arkansas. A full quarter of history. I finish this cut-out with a Sterling Silver pendant bail which will fit necklaces 3mm and smaller in thickness. I also make these cut-outs available with or without the state name,"ARKANSAS", cut-out across the top.
