Glacier National Park Quarter

The United States Mint mintage total for Glacier National Park Quarters was 61.6 million. The Glacier quarter was released into circulation on April 4, which was the same day the US Mint started offering collector 100-coin bags and two-roll sets of its circulation strikes.

When considering mint facility output, Philadelphia struck fewer than Denver. The 2011-P Glacier Park Quarter mintage was 30.4 million and tied with the lowest minted park quarter to date, the 2011-P Gettysburg Park Quarter. As for the 2011-D Glacier Park Quarter, 31.2 million were produced, ranking third lowest at this time. Read more

Yosemite National Park Quarter

Last week the United States Mint published its production figures for the recently released Yosemite National Park Quarter. It is the third coin in the new America the Beautiful Quarters™ Program.

According to the figures, 70,000,000 Yosemite quarters were struck. The number that came from the Denver facility exactly matched that of the Yellowstone coins at 34,800,000. The remaining 35,200,000 were minted at the plant in Philadelphia.

The numbers are still considered “preliminary production figures only” by the U.S. Mint, since official mintages are not expected until January 2011. Still, they provide a means for easy comparison with prior quarters. Read more
