The Front of the Bill pictures David Butler, the first governor of the State of Nebraska. The bill's denomination, 1867, is the year that the state entered the Union as the 37th state. The actual date of admission, 03/01/67, is encoded in the serial number within NE, the state's abbreviation. Lincoln, NE is shown as the capital city. The Back of the Bill pictures the Western Meadowlark as the state bird, the Goldenrod as the state wildflower, the Cottonwood as the state tree, and the White-tailed deer. Also pictured is the U.S. Commemorative Quarter Dollar for the State of Nebraska. The state's nickname, The Cornhusker State, is shown.
