Driving around Colorado, you start to notice things hidden in plain sight. Take license plates for instance. Seeing out-of-state plates stick out like a sore thumb most of the time. What about Colorado state plates that you might have never seen before or rarely see?

The state of Colorado has 40 different specialty plates that it offers to residents through the Colorado Department of Revenue. Some of these specialty plates you see on a daily basis like the Denver Broncos, Ski Country, Adopt a Shelter Pet, and Columbine plates.
