what i meant, was as part of american history. i say Delaware as in the whole state of Delaware. if you do not understand what i am talking about, then ok.
you got to understand that this was part of a trivia.
anyways, the backround information about why i posted this is a question if you know who that person on a horse is on the tail side of the Delaware state quarter.
As you know, when the new 25cent quarters came out, the very 1st one was Delaware. There is history behind why that was chosen as the 1st state. if you can correctly identify the person on the horse on the tail side of the Delaware State quarter, then you can figure out why he is there, and what he did.

I feel like this is cheating ... his name is on the quarter.
Caesar Rodney. He was a delegate to the first continental congress. He went even though he was suffering from asthma and cancer. He arrived just in time to cast the deciding vote in favor of independence.

It's Caesar Rodney, although it's very doubtful that he road a horse the entire trip of his historic ride. More likely, he road in a carriage at least part of the time.

Aren't all quarters 25 cents?
