America the Beautiful Quarter

Every year, the U.S. Mint makes billions of coins - like the penny, nickel, dime, and quarter. In 2010, the Mint began issuing the quarters in the America the Beautiful Quarters® Program. Each design features a national park or site in each state, territory, and the District of Columbia. In 2020, the Mint worked with the Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Historical Park in Vermont to launch a new quarter design to represent the state of Vermont. The coin’s theme is sustainability. Sustainability means working with the environment and our communities so that they both are healthy, now and in the future. The reverse (tails) design depicts a young child completing the planting of a Norway spruce seedling near an established tree, continuing the life cycle of the forest. The child represents the conservationist, seeking to maintain a sustainable forest for future enjoyment and education.
