Description

A quarter from the San Francisco Mint, the 2016 (S) Theodore Roosevelt National Park Quarter belongs to the America the Beautiful Quarters 2010-2021 series. The U.S. Mint produced 976,760 examples, making this ranked 4th of 15 mint variants by mintage, with less than 1% of production. 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 from each state and territory. The reverse depicts a young Theodore Roosevelt on horseback in the North Dakota Badlands. Roosevelt's ranching experiences in the 1880s shaped his conservation philosophy, leading to the establishment of 230 million acres of protected public lands. Shawnee (IL), Cumberland Gap (KY), Harpers Ferry (WV), Theodore Roosevelt (ND), and Fort Moultrie (SC) were released. The Harpers Ferry design depicting John Brown's Fort was historically significant. The San Francisco Mint, a Gold Rush-era institution, now specializes in proof and collector coinage. Estimated market value ranges from $0 to $4 depending on grade and condition. Struck in 75% copper, 25% nickel over a pure copper center, weighing 5.67 grams, 24.3 mm in diameter, with a reeded edge. Cataloged as PCGS #600264.
