Puerto Rico is the home of the only rainforest within the United States or any of its territories. The El Yunque National Forest covers 28,434 acres of land on the small Caribbean island which is an overseas territory of the United States of America. El Yunque comes from the Taino word meaning “white lands” and was misinterpreted by Spanish explorers who were the first outsiders to find the island. Right now, 2012-P 5 oz Burnished ATB El Yunque Silver Coins are available to purchase online from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
Each of the 2012-P 5 oz Burnished ATB El Yunque Silver Coins in this product listing includes an original commemorative box from the United States Mint. The coins also come with a Certificate of Authenticity and the unique visual finish of all burnished coins.
Burnished silver coins for sale from the US Mint are carefully handled from start to finish in the production process. Burnished coins in the ATB Series are vapor-blasted before striking to deliver a matte finish that looks different than the shinier finish of the bullion coins. Each coin is struck individually, then removed immediately and housed in its display box.
On the reverse of 2012-P 5 oz Burnished ATB El Yunque Silver Coins is the image of some of the native wildlife from El Yunque National Forest. A Puerto Rican parrot is featured sitting on a branch while a coqui tree frog is depicted on a leave nearby. The coqui tree frog is endemic to the island of Puerto Rico and it is named for the loud call that males of the species make at night.
El Yunque National Forest contains the two highest peaks on the island of Puerto Rico within its borders. The mountain peaks squeeze upwards of 20 inches of rainfall per year out of passing cloud systems, creating a jungle-like environment within the national forest.
The obverse of 2012 Burnished ATB El Yunque Silver Coins includes the effigy of President George Washington. This left-profile portrait of the nation’s first president was created in 1932 for use on the circulation quarter.
