Comment
Launched in early 2010, ‘America the Beautiful’ is a minting program of 56 commemorative 1/4 dollar coins depicting national parks and other national landmarks of the United States of America.
The San Antonio Missions National Historical operates five Spanish Catholic missions in the San Antonio area (except Los Alamos which is operated by the Daughters of the Republic of Texas).
