How to recognize it
The Great Basin design
Nevada's Great Basin National Park appears on the third 2013 quarter. Its reverse shows a gnarled bristlecone pine growing among the rocky glacial moraines where these trees survive. Great Basin bristlecone pines are among the oldest living things on Earth, with some individuals more than 4,000 years old. The park, established in 1986, also includes Wheeler Peak and the marble chambers of Lehman Caves. Ronald D. Sanders designed the reverse and Renata Gordon sculpted it.
The America the Beautiful Quarter design
Each reverse shows a national park or other national site, one for every state, the District of Columbia and five territories, with the site's name, its state and E PLURIBUS UNUM. Five designs were issued each year from 2010 to 2020, followed by a final design for the Tuskegee Airmen in 2021. The obverse uses a restored, more detailed version of Flanagan's original Washington portrait.
