I always considered this statehood quarter one of the most simplistic and unattractively designed coins ever.
But, there is some interesting things to discover for coin collectors, having read this Coin Week article.
For example...........
Between 2005 and 2010, the Mint applied a Satin Finish to coins included in Mint Sets, a distinction noted by PCGS and NGC. The record prices for circulation strike and Satin Finish 2007-P quarters were realized within days of each other. On January 4, 2017, a 2007-P Wyoming 50 State quarter certified MS-68 by PCGS sold in a Heritage auction for $2,115, the record price for the issue. The record price for a coin with the Satin Finish, $79, was realized on December 27, 2016.
Are there any forum members collecting these coins?

The penultimate coin issued in the program’s penultimate year and the 44th overall, the Wyoming 50 State quarter was released in September 2007. Arguably, the coin is one of the most representative of its state, with its simple, albeit polarizing, design of a cowboy riding a bucking bronco. But as far as collectors are concerned, this representation came at a cost, with the coin susceptible to an excessive amount of wear relative to other issues from the series.
There are, however, a number of minor varieties.

That is not the most expensive 2007 Wyoming Quarter ever sold which was more than double that price
I had no idea that a coin design like that could bring such $$ even with the several varieties.
I'd offer 50 cents and consider the offer to be generous.
I always hated the design for the TN quarter, too. I have some just because I live here. Too bad there just wasn’t room for cool in that series.
To add, doesn’t look like anyone pays more than a couple hundred for a 68 or 69 quality one.
I was not interested in the SHQ series....most seemed to commercialized, rather than artistically designed. I still feel that way.... Cheers, RickO

Kennedys are my quest...
This was one of my favorite statehood quarter error coins. I believe I sold it for around 5K.
Obverse Die Cap ...
I have always thought that this was the worst of the State designs...
