National Park Quarters
Authorization for a new series of quarters featuring National Parks and National Sites now awaits the signature of the President to become law.
The legislation would create another lengthy series of circulating commemorative quarters with rotating reverse designs. Full post on Mint News Blog.
Is the concept of rotating reverse designs now becoming stale? Or does the series have the potential to "re-reinvigorate" our coinage with some beautiful and unique designs?

Beyond stale. They jumped the shark with the native american dollar coins. This series is ridiculous - no one will collect these.
They should have discontinued the dollar bill, and saved the money on the marketing campaign for the dollar coins. Almost every other country has done it now.

"Beyond stale" is a spot on assessment. Personally, I'm burned out on the whole concept. This is way, way too much, and I think the Mint needs to put a halt to this sort of gimmick. I won't be collecting these coins.

I agree with beyond stale - next year there will be a ridiculous amount of coinage with rotating reverse designs - pennies, quarters, presidential dollars and native american dollars. That's too much to deal with. I'll stick with collections I've started and forget about most of the new ones.

Stale as week old bread. What's next.... commemorative quarters with designs on the back showing every time Obama told a lie? We'd NEVER get thru that series! End it with the Prez dollars, and let the coins we collectors have already collected appreciate in value. Right now, each new series just washes away any value the old series had.

I just looked on the NPS.gov website (national park service) and it looks like New Hampshire only has one national park/site. And that is Saint-Gaudens National Historic Site. I don't know what they would do if they extend the series for 11 more years?
