The Artistry Behind the Coin

Obverse: Features the iconic 1932 John Flanagan portrait of George Washington, restored to bring out the crisp details and noble profile that has graced American quarters for generations. The inscriptions "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," "LIBERTY," "IN GOD WE TRUST," and "QUARTER DOLLAR" frame this timeless design.

Reverse: Depicts a tender moment between a mother Samoan fruit bat and her pup as she hangs from a tree branch in the lush rainforest canopy. The design captures the remarkable maternal care these creatures provide, with the baby clinging to its mother against a backdrop of tropical vegetation. This touching scene highlights the species' threatened status due to habitat loss and commercial hunting, making American Samoa National Park a critical sanctuary. The inscriptions "NATIONAL PARK," "AMERICAN SAMOA," "2020," and "E PLURIBUS UNUM" complete this conservation-focused tribute.
