Description

The 2014 (P) Burnished Great Smoky Mtns National Park 5 oz Silver Quarter - No P is a special strike quarter struck at the Philadelphia Mint, part of the 5 oz. America the Beautiful Silver Quarters 2010 to Date series. With a mintage of 24,710, this is a scarce issue. The obverse features George Washington facing left, based on a 1786 bust by Jean-Antoine Houdon, while the reverse displays a historic log cabin in the foreground with a red-tailed hawk circling above and the lush forested mountains of the Smokies in the background.2 mm in diameter, with a lettered edge. Cataloged as PCGS #755895. America the Beautiful Silver Quarters are bullion versions of the circulating ATB quarters, struck in five troy ounces of .999 fine silver at three inches in diameter. Among the most imposing coins in the U.S. Mint's portfolio. Burnished and uncirculated versions with vapor-blasted finish are especially collectible. The series parallels the circulating ATB program from 2010 to 2021.
