Mintages started low and then picked up for America the Beautiful quarter dollars, the U.S. Mint’s coin series that honors national parks and other national sites throughout the United States and its territories.
Introduced in 2010 when the U.S. economy was less than robust, fewer quarters and other coins were needed for commerce. Since then, mintages increased in every successive year until stabilizing in 2016 and 2017 with all of 2018 yet to be determined. The biggest yearly surge happened in 2015 when nearly 3 billion quarters were produced.
The table below includes mintages for circulating America the Beautiful quarter dollars struck from 2010 to 2018, broken out by the Philadelphia and Denver Mints, by year and also by combined totals.
Note: Coin collectors like to monitor mintages, attracted to coins that are scarcer since they tend to be more valuable. The two coins that are currently most "scarce" in the quarter’s program and by minting facility are shown in red font. This table was last updated in November 2018 with the latest U.S. Mint figures provided through October 2018. The next U.S. Mint mintage update for the series is likely to happen in January where finalized mintages for 2018 will be available.
