Minnesota is one step closer to forging a permanent identity in the nation's coin purses and change pockets. The state's quarter dollar commission met this afternoon to narrow down the list of design ideas for the state's commemorative quarter. The short list of ideas will be forwarded to the U-S Mint, which must approve of the finalists. Then the public will have an opportunity to weigh in. Tony Sertich is a state representative from Chisholm who sits on the quarter commission. He says the group will narrow the submissions down to five main themes.
