The America the Beautiful Quarters are a series of 25-cent pieces (quarters) issued by the United States Mint from 2010 until at least 2021.
Acadia National Park became the first national park east of the Mississippi River. It is also the first national park created from land that was donated for that purpose. The park is home to the tallest mountain on the U.S. Atlantic Coast. Visitors to Acadia can enjoy hiking over granite peaks, biking on historic carriage roads, and viewing the spectacular scenery.
Quarters are issued depicting designs of national parks and sites in the order of which that park or site was deemed a national site. Release date (national site date): June 11, 2012 (July 8, 1916).
