The Artistry Behind the Coins

Obverse: The familiar profile of George Washington graces the obverse, rendered in John Flanagan's classic 1932 design that has become synonymous with the quarter dollar. This modified version for the State Quarters Program repositions the date and adds "United States of America" along the top rim, while Washington's dignified profile remains the enduring symbol of American leadership and integrity. The word "LIBERTY" arcs above, with "IN GOD WE TRUST" positioned to the left of Washington's portrait, creating a balanced composition that honors both our first president and our national motto.

Reverse: South Dakota's reverse design captures the grandeur of Mount Rushmore National Memorial, one of America's most iconic landmarks. The sculpted faces of Presidents George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, and Abraham Lincoln emerge from the granite mountainside, their profiles rendered in miniature yet instantly recognizable. These four presidents were chosen to represent the nation's birth, growth, development, and preservation—a narrative of American history carved in stone. To the right of the monument, a ring-necked pheasant takes flight, its wings spread wide as it soars across the design. This state bird adds movement and life to the composition while acknowledging South Dakota's rich hunting heritage and prairie landscapes. The state name "SOUTH DAKOTA" appears prominently at the top, with "1889" marking statehood and "2006" indicating the year of issue. The motto "E PLURIBUS UNUM" (Out of Many, One) curves along the bottom rim. The inscription "Mount Rushmore" identifies the landmark, ensuring viewers recognize this engineering and artistic marvel that draws millions of visitors to the Black Hills each year.

Why Collectors Choose This Piece

Purchasing a full roll of State Quarters offers advantages that single coins simply cannot match. With forty examples at your disposal, you can cherry-pick the finest specimens for your personal collection while using others for trades, gifts, or future grading submissions. Rolls also provide natural protection—coins remain secure in their original wrapper, minimizing handling and preserving their uncirculated condition. For collectors who appreciate the South Dakota quarter's monumentally significant design, a roll ensures you'll never run short when opportunities arise to share or trade.

The South Dakota State Quarter stands among the most visually impressive designs in the entire 50 State Quarters Program. Mount Rushmore represents not just South Dakota but America itself—a monument to leadership, democracy, and the enduring values that define the nation. Sculptor Gutzon Borglum's masterwork, carved between 1927 and 1941, transformed a granite cliff into a shrine of democracy that has become one of the world's most recognizable symbols. This quarter captures that monumental achievement in miniature, making it especially meaningful for history enthusiasts, travelers who've visited the memorial, and anyone who appreciates American iconography.

The Philadelphia Mint "P" mark adds historical significance, as this facility has been striking American coins since 1792. In brilliant uncirculated condition, these quarters retain the sharp details and lustrous finish that circulated examples quickly lose—the individual presidential faces, the texture of the granite, the delicate feathers of the pheasant—all showcase the quality that serious collectors demand. The original String & Sons bank wrapper authenticates the roll's origin and provides collector appeal beyond the coins themselves. Whether you're building a complete State Quarters set, investing in multiple examples for long-term appreciation, sharing America's presidential heritage with loved ones, or simply want the convenience and value of buying in quantity, this roll delivers forty pieces of monumental American history in one affordable package.
