Description
The 2017 (P) Frederick Douglass National Park Quarter is a quarter from the Philadelphia Mint, belonging to the America the Beautiful Quarters 2010-2021 series. The U.S. Mint produced 184.8 million examples, making this ranked 7th of 15 mint variants by mintage, with 9% of production. The obverse features George Washington facing left, based on a 1786 bust by Jean-Antoine Houdon and the reverse displays unique designs featuring national parks and sites from each state and territory. The reverse depicts Frederick Douglass at a writing desk with his home, Cedar Hill, visible in the background. The site preserves the final home of the renowned abolitionist who escaped slavery to become one of the most influential voices for human rights. Effigy Mounds (IA), Frederick Douglass (DC), Ozark Riverways (MO), Ellis Island (NJ), and George Rogers Clark (IN) were honored. Frederick Douglass was the first non-site coin, honoring the abolitionist at his Washington D.C. historic site. The Philadelphia Mint, America's oldest coin-making facility, has struck coins continuously since 1792. Estimated market value ranges from $0 to $1 depending on grade and condition. Struck in 75% copper, 25% nickel over a pure copper center, weighing 5.67 grams, 24.3 mm in diameter, with a reeded edge. Cataloged as PCGS #625520.
