I used to follow coins and collecting more. With so many changes recently in pennies, nickles and quarters my numismatic interest has severely waned.

Thus I was surprised to read about a new Maine special quarter coming out this year. Apparently the “America the Beautiful Quarters Program” started in April of 2010?
Oops.
Check out the article in the Bangor Daily News, “Bass Harbor lighthouse, Acadia to appear on new quarter“.
