| Obverse description | Left-facing effigy of George Washington, first President of the United States (1789–1797), rendered in high relief after the original design by John Flanagan as modified by William Cousins. The obverse legend reads 'LIBERTY' above and 'QUARTER DOLLAR' below, with 'IN GOD WE TRUST' to the left of the portrait, 'UNITED STATES OF AMERICA' arcing along the upper rim, and the mint mark 'S' flanked by the designer initials 'JF' and 'WC' near the truncation. The field is clean and unadorned, consistent with the standard Washington quarter obverse format. |

| Additional information |
The Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller quarter was part of the America the Beautiful series, which ran from 2010 through 2021 and cycled through five new designs annually. This particular Vermont site — a working farm and forest that passed from conservationist George Perkins Marsh to Frederick Billings to Laurance Rockefeller — is the only national park explicitly dedicated to the history of conservation itself rather than to a landscape being conserved. The .999 silver strikes were produced for collectors at San Francisco and carry a mintage sharply lower than the copper-nickel circulation versions.
