2016 marks the centennial anniversary of the National Park Service.  The celebration of that milestone includes the special issue of these magnificent commemorative coins. Thanks to the efforts of leaders like Theodore Roosevelt, John Muir and countless others, many historic landmarks – both natural and cultural – have been preserved and protected. Today, more than 290 million people visit the hundreds of sites under National Park Service management each year. It is the duty of each generation to preserve and protect our national parks as the heritage of future generations.

Design:

The obverse (heads) side features Yellowstone National Park’s Old Faithful geyser and a bison. Inscriptions are “LIBERTY,” “NATIONAL PARK SERVICE CENTENNIAL,” “IN GOD WE TRUST,” “1916” and “2016.”

The reverse (tails) side depicts a Latina Folklórico dancer and the National Park Service logo, representing the multi–faceted cultural experience found in America’s national parks. Inscriptions are “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “E PLURIBUS UNUM,” “$1,” “HERITAGE,” “CULTURE” and “PRIDE.”

About Proof Coins…

United States Mint proof coins are struck on specially prepared planchets (coin blanks).  Each coin is struck multiple times with higher force to bring out every aspect of the devices (images) and legends (letters & numbers) with needle sharp clarity.  The minting process results in beautifully frosted devices and legends on highly polished mirror bright fields (flat surface areas), creating a breathtaking deep cameo appearance.

About Modern Commemorative Coins…

Congress authorizes commemorative coins that celebrate and honor American people,  places, events, and institutions.  Although these coins are legal tender, they are not minted for general circulation.  Each commemorative coin is produced by the United States Mint in limited quantity and is only available for a limited time.

As well as commemorating important aspects of American history and culture, these coins help raise money for important causes.  Part of the price of these coins is a surcharge that goes to organizations and projects that benefit the community.  For example, surcharges on the U.S. Capitol Visitor Center commemorative coins helped build a new visitor center under the U.S. Capitol's East Plaza.

Since the modern commemorative coin program began in 1982, the United States Mint has raised more than $506,301,189 in surcharges to help build new museums, maintain national monuments like the Vietnam War Memorial, preserve historical sites like George Washington's home, support various Olympic programs, and much more.

Packaging:

Each coin is encapsulated and presented in a United States Mint velvet & satin gift case protected by an outer box of matching design.

OK Ranch sells fine collectible & investment coins, fine & fashion jewelry, gifts, and more through our eBay store. 

“ Unsearched” — All of the coins offered in this listing are “unsearched”.   Many coin dealers “search” all coins when they are received from the Mint.  They "cherry-pick" the best coins.  Then submit them to be graded, certified, and slabbed by PCGS, NGC, ANACS, etc.  These graded and certified coins are then sold at higher, premium prices.  When a dealer searches coins, those that they sell in original Mint packaging are only lesser quality coins.

Surface areas that appear black on some proof coin photos are actually highly polished, mirror-bright metal reflecting the color of the camera. We often include proof coin photos with the coin slightly tilted to better depict the mirror bright surfaces.  However, tilting the coin may result in one side being slightly out of focus.  Please review all of the photos provided to obtain the best understanding of the coin's actual appearance.

Our goal is to provide clear, high definition photos that accurately represent the coin(s) offered in each of our eBay listings.  Whenever possible, we use actual photos of our coins, rather than just stock artwork from the Mint.  We frequently update and upgrade the photos that appear with our listings, using improved cameras and lenses and better lighting.  We will honor your requests for additional photos as quickly as our schedule permits.

Photos: When a listing offers multiples of the same coin, one coin is picked at random and photographed.  Since all coins offered in that listing are essentially identical, the coin photographed is representative of all coins offered.
