CCAC recommends quarter designs

The Citizens Coinage Advisory Committee met June 12 in Washington, D.C., to choose designs for the 2020 and 2021 America the Beautiful quarters to recommend to Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin.

The 2021 design above will be the 56th and last issue of the ATB series.

The other 2020 designs above are arranged in order of release from left to right in each row.
