National Forest Quarter Appraisal

Allegheny National Forest Quarter (Reverse)

The item is a United States quarter dollar coin, specifically depicting the reverse side of a coin from the 'America the Beautiful Quarters' series. Based on the visible design elements, it is identifiable as the Allegheny National Forest quarter, which was released in 2019, contrary to the '2023 D quarter' in the provided context, which refers to the mint mark and year. The coin appears to be composed of a silver-colored cupronickel alloy, typical for U.S. quarters. The design captures a scene of a canoeist navigating the Allegheny River within the Allegheny National Forest, surrounded by flora and fauna including a visible doe. Details are moderately sharp, suggesting it is not heavily worn, but individual leaves on trees and some finer details appear slightly softened. There are no obvious deep scratches, dents, or significant damage. It exhibits a somewhat dull, circulated appearance with a slight, even patina across its surface. The coin is housed within a clear, plastic coin album sleeve, which itself shows some minor dust or debris. The edges of the coin are not clearly visible, preventing an assessment of reeding or potential mint errors on the rim. The context of '2023 D quarter' is for a different year than what is visually depicted on the coin's design, which corresponds to the 2019 Allegheny National Forest quarter. The 'D' mint mark would typically be found on the obverse (front) of the coin, often below the motto 'IN GOD WE TRUST' or near the date, so its presence cannot be confirmed from this reverse-side image.
