The Great Sand Dunes
National Park quarter is the fourth of 2014 and the 24th overall in the America
the Beautiful Quarters Program. Great
Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve has the tallest dunes in North America as
the centerpiece of the site’s diverse landscape of grasslands, wetlands,
conifer and aspen forests, alpine lakes, and tundra. These can be experienced through hiking, sand
sledding, splashing in Medano Creek
and watching wildlife. The Great Sand
Dunes National Park was first established as a national site on March 17, 1932.
The reverse design
features a father and son playing in the sand next to the creek bed. The distinctive mountains and sand dunes are
featured in the background. Inscriptions
are GREAT SAND DUNES, COLORADO, 2014 and E PLURIBUS UNUM. Design candidates were developed in
consultation with representatives of Great Sand Dunes National Park and
Preserve.
Program
The United States Mint
launched the America the Beautiful Quarters Program in 2010. The 12-year
