5oz Silver Quarters<br />

Our Nation’s most treasured national<br />

parks and sites – majestic places that truly<br />

make us “America the Beautiful” – are<br />

represented in a 5oz pure silver quarter<br />

series that started in 2010. This series is the<br />

first five-ounce, .999 fine silver bullion coins<br />

ever produced by the United States Mint.<br />

The 5oz quarters are exact duplicates – only<br />

much larger – of the America the Beautiful<br />

Quarter series that started in 2010 and will<br />

go through 2021.<br />

The obverse of the quarter features<br />

George Washington based on the portrait<br />

created by John Flanagan for the 1932<br />

Washington Quarter. The reverse of each<br />

quarter features the National Park or<br />

Site that is being honored that year. The<br />

United States Mint created two types of<br />

these 5oz quarters, one being the bullion<br />

coin that comes in a tube of 10 coins. The<br />

second is the “Uncirculated” coin that<br />

features a P symbol representing the<br />

Philadelphia Mint, with a certificate<br />

of authenticity and housed<br />

in Original Government<br />

packaging.
