2011-P United States 25-Cent Glacier/Montana National Park Quarter Coin (Brilliant Uncirculated)
In 2010, the United States Mint began issuing 56 quarter-dollar coins featuring designs depicting national parks and other national sites as part of the United States Mint America the Beautiful Quarters Program.
The 2011 Glacier National Park Quarter honors the park found in the state of Montana and will appear as the seventh strike in the US Mint's America the Beautiful Quarters Program®. The Glacier Quarter is the second quarter dollar to appear for the year and has a release date of April 4, 2011.
This specific quarter honors Glacier National Park of Montana which was established as such on May 11, 1910. The park consists of over 1 million acres and was originally established as a national forest preserve in 1897 at the behest of officials of the Great Northern Railway.
The railway saw the location as a perfect tourist destination for its customers and felt that national protection was a means of insuring its continued beauty. The railroad is also responsible for creating several of the historic lodges and chalets which are still in use today and found in or near the park.
