The new Theodore Roosevelt National Park quarter, fourth issue of 2016 and 34th in the series, was celebrated during the launch ceremony on August 25th and released for general circulation on the 29th. The special event coincides with the 100th anniversary of the National Park Service, which has watched over our parks since August 25, 1916.
Painted Canyon Visitor Center is located near the town of Medora, North Dakota. It is part of the park’s South Unit (the park has 3 units: the South Unit, the North Unit and Elkhorn Ranch).
Children received new quarters, featuring Teddy Roosevelt on horseback near the Little Missouri River in the park. The 2016 series quarters honor some of America’s more scenic parks – Shawnee, Cumberland Gap, Harpers Ferry, Fort Moultrie (Fort Sumter) and, now with this release, Theodore Roosevelt. Update your collection today with new Theodore Roosevelt National Park Quarters.
