Starbucks Been There Delaware Mug was pretty easy to identify as it says “The Diamond State” right on the back. I also see the flag of the state and a beach chair. I will refrain from guessing what else is on the mug till it is released. Sorry guys.

Update from 2018/04/12: adding the pic of the front and the back from eBay.
