The three-masted schooner Victory Chimes, also known as Edwin and Maud or Domino Effect, is a U.S. National Historic Landmark. The boat on the Maine State Quarter is meant to resemble the Victory Chimes.[3]
The Victory Chimes was built at Bethel, Delaware in 1900 as a Chesapeake Ram schooner. It was designed for carrying general cargo and converted to carry passengers in 1946.
The boat was added to the National Historic Register as a National Historic Landmark in 1997.[2]
