US Quarter Dollar to be Replaced by National Park Quarters

Tue, 23 Dec 2008 19:59:55 +0000

America's Beautiful National Parks Quarter Dollar Coin Act became law today with President Bush's signature. The bill authorizes a new series of 56 quarter designs at a rate of five per year beginning in 2010.

The law mandates that each quarter will be "emblematic of a national park or other national site in each State, the District of Columbia, and each territory of the United States."

The Treasury Secretary will select the final list for respective quarter designs within 270 days and after consulting with the Secretary of the Interior and the governor or other chief executive of each State. The quarter series will last for at least 11 years, but an optional provision provides the Treasury Secretary the authority to extend the series past 2030.

When it comes to hand lenses, four or five powers of magnification seem to be the norm for many collectors. At these powers, an entire coin may be viewed all at once, which is especially useful when grading. Nevertheless, unless you are an experienced numismatist, you will not be able to see characteristics such as metal flow, die doubling, and counterfeit diagnostics on many coins when using minimal magnification. The micrograph shows the head detail of a genuine 1861-O CSA Obverse Seated half dollar. This view is close to what you would expect to see when using a 10� hand lens.

South Africa minted its first gold coin called the Krugerrand in 1967. This coin has no face value but merely stands as a symbol. It is made of 1 ounce of gold and can be purchased for investment purposes. Since then other countries also minted bullion coins. Canada made the Gold Maple Leaf in 1979 and Australia made the Nugget in 1981. These two are much more popular than the South African coin because of its 24 carat purity.
