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.
Everglades National Park of Florida is unique in that it is a protected ecosystem, not a geological feature. It is the largest subtropical wilderness in the United States. It protects an unparalleled landscape that provides important habitat for numerous rare and endangered species like the manatee, American crocodile and elusive Florida panther. There are over 350 species of birds, several types of venomous snakes, sea turtles and other exotic animals that live in the Everglades. Thanks to the slow moving water system, which is actually a river, the ecosystem is able to support a wide array of animal life. An international treasure as well, it is designated as a world heritage site, international biosphere reserve and wetland of international importance.
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): November 3, 2014 (May 30, 1934).
