This year\u2019s quarters feature five one-year designs highlighting milestones in American history. Earlier releases honored the Mayflower Compact, Revolutionary War, Declaration of Independence and U.S. Constitution. The Gettysburg Address quarter recognizes Lincoln\u2019s 1863 speech and its enduring message of national unity.<\/p>\n

U.S. Treasurer Brandon Beach and U.S. Mint Director Paul Hollis will join Gettysburg National Military Park Superintendent Stephanie Stephens and Gettysburg Foundation Acting President Barbara Sardella for the ceremony.<\/p>\n

Activities will include a Civil War-era brass band performance and a ceremonial coin pour into a replica of Lincoln\u2019s familiar stovepipe hat. Following the ceremony, the Mint will distribute free Gettysburg Address quarters in commemorative coin boards.<\/p>\n

ACNB Bank will coordinate a public coin exchange inside the Museum and Visitor Center, giving attendees an opportunity to obtain additional quarters. The exchange will be cash-only, and visitors are advised to bring cash because no ATM is available at the facility.<\/p>\n
