The Artistry Behind the Coin

Obverse: The quarter features John Flanagan's timeless portrait of George Washington, a design that has graced U.S. quarters since 1932. Washington's dignified profile faces left, surrounded by the inscriptions "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," "QUARTER DOLLAR," "LIBERTY," and "IN GOD WE TRUST." The familiar design provides continuity across the entire America the Beautiful series.

Reverse: The reverse design captures the essence of Ellis Island with powerful imagery and symbolic elements. Inscriptions of "ELLIS ISLAND," "NEW JERSEY," "2017," and "E PLURIBUS UNUM" (Out of Many, One) frame the design - a fitting motto for a site that welcomed immigrants from countless nations. The artistry evokes the hope and promise that greeted millions of newcomers to American shores between 1892 and 1954.
