Do you love parks and nature? Are you looking to add to your coin collection or maybe even begin a coin collection? If so, then the America the Beautiful Quarters Proof Set would be a great purchase for you! In 2010, the US Mint began to issue a coin program of 56 quarters, with each coin depicting a different national park or national site of either natural or historical significance. One national treasure from each State/District of Columbia/Territory is featured in the program. The quarters in the ATB Proof Set are issued in the order in which the particular site was established as a national site, and are issued in sets of 5 coins.

The America the Beautiful Quarters Proof Set includes 5 coins, with each year’s set featuring 5 different national parks or sites. The quarters were struck by the San Francisco Mint, with an S mint mark on the obverse, just below IN GOD WE TRUST. Each of these Proof ATB Quarters contains 90% silver with 10% copper. The US Mint also produced the ATB Silver Bullion Coin Program, with each bullion coin produced in 5 ounce, .999 fine silver and a diameter of 3 inches as investment-grade silver bullion coins.
The obverse design on each of the America the Beautiful Quarters is a left-facing portrait of President George Washington. This design was created in 1932 by John Flanagan, in a competition for the Washington Silver Quarter. His design has proven to be such a classic that it has been on the obverse of the quarter ever since. It was slightly modified for the 50 State Quarters Program of the US Mint in 1999, but then reverted back to his original design in 2010 for the ATB Quarters Program.
The reverse designs of the 5 quarters included in the 2010 America the Beautiful Quarters Proof Set feature Hot Springs National Park in Arkansas, Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming, Yosemite National Park in California, Grand Canyon National Park in Arizona, and Mt. Hood National Forest in Oregon.
The 2010 Silver Proof ATB Sets come in their original mint packaging, featuring a protective hard plastic case with an outer box. It is possible that the outer box may show some signs of wear and tear, but the coins in their plastic case will be in good condition.
