Chaco-Culture-National-Park-Quarter-Two-Roll-SetThis product will be available for sale on April 2, 2012 at 12:00 Noon (ET).

The Chaco Culture National Historical Park quarter is the second to be released in 2012 and the 12th overall in the America the Beautiful Quarters® Program. Each two-roll set consists of 80 quarters: one roll of 40 coins with the "P" mint mark for Philadelphia and one roll of 40 coins with the "D" mint mark for Denver.

The quarter's reverse (tails side) image illustrates a view to the west of two elevated kivas that are part of the Chetro Ketl Complex. The design also shows the north wall of Chetro Ketl and the north wall of the canyon, reflecting the culture that the park was established to commemorate. Inscriptions are CHACO CULTURE, NEW MEXICO, 2012 and E PLURIBUS UNUM. Design candidates were developed in consultation with representatives of Chaco Culture National Historical Park. Each coin in the series features a common obverse (heads) with the 1932 portrait of George Washington by John Flanagan, restored to bring out subtle details and the beauty of the original model. Inscriptions are UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, LIBERTY, IN GOD WE TRUST and QUARTER DOLLAR.

I've been planning a trip as I only live a few hours away. It can be tough to get to as many of the roads are dirt and can be subject to extreme weather. Definitely an underrated place with supernatural mysteries on par with almost any place in the world. Lots of astrological symbolism. The park service has a great website describing it.
