Beginning in 2010, the United States Mint started production on an exciting new coin program. Authorized by America’s Beautiful National Parks Quarter Dollar Coin Act of 2008, this program was slated to produce 56 silver quarter designs depicting US National parks and other noteworthy US sites. The “America the Beautiful” quarters series remains just as popular today as it was a decade ago. The significant sites depicted on these coins continue to be released in the order in which they were first established as a national or memorial park. Since the program’s introduction in 2010, it has provided five new and exciting quarter designs each year. The states/territories represented by the new 2019 releases include Texas, Guam, Idaho, Massachusetts, and the Northern Mariana Islands.

The Northern Mariana Islands American Memorial Park serves to commend and honor those servicemen and locals who lost their lives during this relentless campaign.
