The Artistry Behind the Coin

Obverse: Features the classic portrait of George Washington, designed by John Flanagan and refined for the America the Beautiful series. The inscriptions "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," "QUARTER DOLLAR," "LIBERTY," and "IN GOD WE TRUST" frame this timeless image.

Reverse: A stunning portrayal of Louisiana's natural heritage, this design captures a wild turkey in graceful flight over blue stem grass, with majestic long leaf pine rising in the background. The composition evokes the untamed spirit of Kisatchie's diverse ecosystems—from bald cypress groves hidden in the bayous to old growth pine forests that have stood for centuries. The inscriptions "KISATCHIE," "LOUISIANA," "2015," and "E PLURIBUS UNUM" complete this tribute to one of America's most unique natural landscapes. Design candidates were developed in close consultation with representatives of Kisatchie National Forest.
