America the Beautiful Quarters

December 22nd, 2009

The America the Beautiful Quarter series will continue the issuance of quarter dollar coins with rotating reverse designs that was established by the 50 State Quarters Program and continued by the US Territories and District of Columbia Quarters Program. The new series will be structured around the different states and territories, but the designs will take focus on National Parks and National Sites at each location. The obverse of each of the coins will feautre a restored portrait of George Washington based on the 1932 Washington Quarter. The new America the Beautiful Quarters series is expected to be an educational experience for the public about our National Parks and other federally designated areas. The first coin is scheduled to be released in 2010 and the series will continue for 56 different coins until 2021. Coins will be issued in clad composition for circulation and the clad version of the proof set.
