WASHINGTON — Beginning November 4 at noon Eastern Time (ET), the United States Mint will accept orders for product options containing quarters honoring Mount Rushmore National Memorial in South Dakota. The new quarter is the 20th coin released in the America the Beautiful Quarters Program, the multi–year initiative to honor our national sites. Product options and pricing are as follows:
| PRODUCT CODE |
PRODUCT OPTION |
MINT MARK |
PRICE |
| WG4 | Two–Roll Set (40 coins per roll) | “P” and “D” | $32.95 |
| WG1, WG2, WG3 | 100–Coin Bag | “P,” “D.” or “S” | $34.95 |
| WG5 | Single Roll (40 coins) | “S” | $18.95 |
| TC6 | Three–Roll Set | “P,” “D.” and “S” | $46.95 |
The coins in the rolls and bags are circulating quality struck on the main production floors of the United States Mint’s facilities at Denver, Philadelphia, and San Francisco. Unlike the “P” and “D” mint mark quarters, coins with the “S” mint mark will not be released into circulation.
The special numismatic wrapping for the coin rolls displays the name “Mount Rushmore National Memorial”; the abbreviation “S.” for South Dakota; “$10” (the face value of its contents); and “P,” “D.” or “S” for the mint of origin. The canvas bags have a tag with “Mount Rushmore National Memorial”; “S.”; and “P,” “D.” or “S.”
The United States Mint accepts orders at its online catalog, http://www.usmint.gov/catalog, and at 1–800–USA–MINT (872–6468). Hearing– and speech–impaired customers with TTY equipment may order at 1–888–321 MINT (6468). Customers should add $4.95 to all domestic orders for shipping and handling.

The United States Mint was created by Congress in 1792 and became part of the Department of the Treasury in 1873. It is the Nation’s sole manufacturer of legal tender coinage and is responsible for producing circulating coinage for the Nation to conduct its trade and commerce. The United States Mint also produces numismatic products, including proof, uncirculated, and commemorative coins; Congressional Gold Medals; and silver and gold bullion coins. The United States Mint’s numismatic programs are self–sustaining and operate at no cost to the taxpayer.
