The United States of America had issued a commemorative quarter dollar with the theme of state Oklahoma in the year 2008. The reverse of this coin depicts the image of the State bird, the Scissortail Flycatcher, in flight with its distinctive tail feathers spread. The bird is soaring over the State wildflower, the Indian Blanket, backed by a field of similar wildflowers.
