2013-P Mount Rushmore Quarter

Mount Rushmore National Memorial is in South Dakota and was conceived as a tourist trap. There many controversies, myths, and stories surrounding Mt. Rushmore but at the end it is just another tourist site.

The coin depicts the years it took carving the Six Grandfathers, (original Lakota name) mountain into the place to remember the founding fathers. Of course the original design was modified because of cracks in the rock. Plus they were meant to have bodies but that never happened due to lack of funding during WW II.

Although Mt. Rushmore is now a symbol of America and very popular it is one of the national sites that I do not have on my list to see. If I see it it will probably be spectacular but not as great as the other side that is still natural.

Here's the stats...
Type/Country: 25 Cents - Mount Rushmore / United States
Year: 2013-P
Mintage: 231,800,000
Metal: 91.67% Copper 8.33% Nickel
Value: $0.25 in F-12

Do you have a quarter from America and want to know its value? Leave a comment/question and I will do my best to find out the price and history for you.
