Collector notes

• The tractor, the flowers and the cyclist all sit on the lower half of the circle, so the lettering is the quickest way to confirm the state.
• The cyclist and the zigzag ribbon sit beside the handle, so a photo taken from the left side of the mug will miss them.

Hidden Starbucks cup

Starbucks says a to-go cup is hidden in every Discovery Series design. On the front of the mug, a white to-go cup with a green dot sits near the green tractor. Where the hidden cup is on other mugs
