The new Great Basin National Park Quarter, the eighteenth issue of the series, and third design for 2013, will soon be in circulation. On Thursday, June 20th, the official launch ceremony for the new Great Basin quarter will take place at the National Park Visitor Center in Baker, Nevada.
Baker, NV, has about 65 year-round residents, but has thousands of visitors annually who pass through on their way to the park. Located just 5 miles from the park’s entrance, the town is the site for the Great Basin Visitor Center which will host the launch ceremony. The 2013 series quarters honor some of America’s more interesting national forests, parks, and memorials – White Mountain, Perry’s Victory, Great Basin, Fort McHenry and Mount Rushmore.
