At $9.95, this year’s sets are priced $5 less than past offerings, and the cards depict colorful scenery of the national park or national site honored. Sets between 2010 and 2011 cost $14.95, and the three coins were held within a U.S. Mint branded black and white card.

Introduced in 2010 to support of the America the Beautiful Quarters® program, the United States Mint continues to sell every one it has released.

Buyers will find the quarters sets at the U.S. Mint online store, located here, or by calling the bureau’s customer service reps at 1-800-USA-MINT (872-6468).

The latest U.S. Mint product to feature Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park is the 5 oz. silver bullion coin that went on sale Monday. Containing five ounces of 99.9% pure silver and struck to a diameter of three inches, the investment-grade bullion coin shares the same designs as found on the smaller Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park quarters.

If you do not have your S Hawaii, El Yunque, Chaco Culture or Acadia rolls yet, thats a shame. The code on the box is PL7, and folks there is a good reason. Buy multiple rolls. After a week, no rolls are appearing on EBAY. There is a reason for these not being sold, they are that spectacular. Buy your S rolls now.
PL is used to describe Proof Like. Appropriate.
