The Mint launched the America the Beautiful quarters program in 2010 as authorized by the America’s Beautiful National Parks Quarter Dollar Coin Act of 2008. The Act called for the Mint to issue 56 quarters with reverse designs depicting national parks and other national sites in each state or territory and the District of Columbia. 2020 marks the 11th year of the program. A final coin honoring Tuskegee Airmen National Historic Site in Alabama will be issued in 2021, marking the program’s conclusion.
