2012 40 Coin El Yunque Quarter Rolls - S Mint - (UNC) Brilliant Uncirculated 

ROLL HIGHLIGHTS:

• Released on 1/23/2012.
• The San Francisco Mint El Yunque Quarter is the first non-proof 'S' mint quarter issued since 1976 and the first non proof clad quarter issued since 1954. Though struck as Business Strikes, none of these quarters were issued for circulation, insuring their desirability for years to come.
• Every roll contains 40 coins in Brilliant UNC condition. Each roll comes in a plastic tube.
• The obverse shows a slightly modified version of the original Washington Quarter. The mint moved some of the wording previously found on the reverse to the obverse in order to make more room for the reverse design for each state. You'll find "United States of America," "In God We Trust," "Liberty," and "Quarter Dollar" all spelled out on the obverse of the quarter as well as the coin's mint mark. 
• The reverse of the El Yunque quarter depicts a Coqui tree frog sitting on a leaf and a Puerto Rican parrot behind an epiphyte plant with tropical flora in the background.
• The 5 National Parks Released in 2012 were El Yunque National Forest in Puerto Rico, Chaco Culture National Historical Park in New Mexico, Acadia National Park in Maine, Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park in Hawaii and Denali National Park and Preserve in Alaska.
• Sovereign coins minted at the U.S. Mint and backed by the United States government, each with a face value of $0.25 for a total face value of $10.00 a roll.
