Description

A quarter from the Philadelphia Mint, the 2011 (P) Burnished Vicksburg National Park 5 oz Silver Quarter belongs to the 5 oz. America the Beautiful Silver Quarters 2010 to Date series. The obverse features George Washington facing left, based on a 1786 bust by Jean-Antoine Houdon and the reverse displays unique designs featuring national parks and sites — struck in 5 ounces of .999 fine silver at a massive 76.2mm diameter. The reverse depicts the ironclad gunboat USS Cairo on the Yazoo River. Vicksburg National Military Park commemorates the pivotal 1863 siege that gave the Union control of the Mississippi River, splitting the Confederacy in two. A modern issue from an era of rotating coin designs, collector-focused programs, and renewed interest in numismatic artistry. Coined at the Philadelphia facility, the nation's original mint that has operated continuously since its 1792 founding. Estimated market value is approximately $376. Struck in 99.9% silver, weighing 155.5 grams, 76.2 mm in diameter, with a lettered edge. Cataloged as PCGS #507417.
