American Samoa includes a total of five main islands with two smaller coral atolls. Located west of the Cook Islands and just east of the International Date Line, American Samoa is part of the broader Samoan Islands that were split between Germany and the United States in the early days of the 20th century. America annexed its islands in 1900 and established the region as an unincorporated territory of the United States.
The obverse face of 2020 5 oz ATB National Park of American Samoa Silver Coins features President George Washington in left-profile relief. This design is based on the 1932 image from John Flanagan as designed for the circulating quarter dollar that year.
On the reverse side of 2020 ATB National Park of American Samoa Silver Coins bears the image of a Samoa flying fox mother with its pup. The natural habitat of this species is subtropical and tropical dry forests and it is native to American Samoa, Fiji, and Samoa.
Represented in this release is the National Park of American Samoa. The park is distributed across three islands in total and protects coral reefs, tropical rainforests, and fruit bats over a stretch of 13,500 acres of land, reefs, and ocean.
