2011 (P) Glacier National Park (Montana)

This 2011 Glacier National Park quarter is minted at the United States Mint at Philadelphia and has never been placed into circulation.

Highlighting one of America’s crown jewels, the seventh coin to be issued in the United States Mint America the Beautiful Quarters™ Program is the 2011 Glacier National Park Quarter, featuring Montana’s Glacier National Park.

The coin entered circulation on 4^th April 2011 through the Federal Reserve Banks.

Final design selection for the Glacier National Park of Montana coin was decided upon by Secretary of the Treasury from three design candidates presented by the US Mint. The decision was based upon recommendations by the Mint Director as well as comments from other groups and individuals.

The design chosen for the reverse of the Glacier Coin depicts a mountain goat perching on the rugged terrain found throughout the park with majestic Mount Reynolds shown off in the distance. The reverse was designed by AIP Associate Designer Barbara Fox and sculpted by United States Mint Sculptor-Engraver Charles Vickers.
