Coin Value Contents Table
Five National Park Quarters were produced in 2016, namely Shawnee, Cumberland Gap, Harpers Ferry, Theodore Roosevelt, and Fort Moultrie at Fort Sumter. These coins count as ultra-modern currency so it’s easy to find them in high grades, meaning they don’t always get good prices. Let’s explore the 2016 Quarter Value and learn more about their home states.

History of the 2016 Quarter
People collect old coins for two reasons. Firstly, their precious metal content has intrinsic value. And secondly, the older a coin is, the more it’s worth. But with newer coins, it’s more about sentimental value. That said, the US Mint makes a lot of money from commemorative coins since the seignorage tends to be higher. It’s the difference between cost and face value.
Starting in 1999, the US Mint created a series of commemorative coins aimed at enticing a new generation of coin collectors. As a cost-cutting measure, these coins were minted to circulate instead of purely collectible pieces. The series included American states, American Territories, national parks, national monuments, and American women – mainly minorities.
From 2010 to 2021, the series covered various national parks and monuments from every US State. They made 50 Park Quarters and 6 Monument Quarters, jointly naming them America the Beautiful Quarters. New designs were released every two months, making five new coins per year. The Mint hoped citizens would collect each design. That’s why they made so many.

The Five Quarters of 2016
In 2016, America the Beautiful Quarters represented Illinois, Kentucky, West Virginia, North Dakota, and South Carolina. The first four were national parks but the fifth was a monument. For each coin, the relevant zone ran a contest or selected their coin designer. While State and Territories Quarters were coined in the order they joined the Union, these sets were separate.
The mint based their release dates on the time they were formally recognized as monuments or national parks. And to ease their discussion, numismatists often call them ATB Quarters. (Numismatics is the study, collection, and trade of coins, medals, tokens, paper money, etc.) These 56 ATB Quarters used the same geographic regions as the State & Territory Quarters.
This means they made an ATB Quarter for every state, foreign territory, and federal district (that’s Washington DC). All the coins had George Washington on the front and shared the template of the back design. Some states had the same subject as their 50 State coin, but they used a different angle, design, or depiction to clearly distinguish these two representatives.
Features of the 2016 Quarter
To describe a coin accurately, it’s best to use the right technical terms. You should refer to the heads side as the obverse, the tails side as the reverse, the thin side as the edge, and the raised border as the rim or collar. The images on the coin are devices, the words are legends or mottos, the background is the field, and the blank disc that makes the coin is a planchet.
The Obverse of the 2016 Quarter
It has a portrait of George Washington, the 1st US President. He’s facing left with Liberty in front of him and the motto In God We Trust behind him. The mint mark is placed under the motto. Above his head, it says United States of America, and below him, it says Quarter Dollar. Towards the right of his neckline cut-off, JF is engraved for designer John Flanagan.
The Reverse of the 2016 Quarter
The reverse template has an outer ring with the name of the park or monument at the top and the mint date at the bottom. The lower left of the outer ring has the state where the park or monument is located. The lower right of the outer ring has the motto E Pluribus Unum. Inside the ring, you’ll find the relevant device, words, and initials that identify the designer.

Other Features of the 2016 Quarter
The 2016 Quarter was 24.26mm in diameter and 1.75mm thick, with 119 edge reeds. Clad Cupronickel Quarters weighed 5.67g and were 91.67% Copper and 8.33% Nickel. But Silver Proof Quarters weighed 6.25g and were 90% Silver and 10% Copper. A 5 oz Bullion Quarter was 99.99% Silver, weighed 155.5g, and was 76.2mm across (3”) with a reedy lettered edge.
Features of the 2016 Gold Bullion Quarter
This coin borrowed its design from the Standing Liberty Quarter of 1916 to 1930. So the obverse of the 2016 Gold Bullion Quarter shows an armored Lady Liberty with a shield and an olive branch. The top of the coin says Liberty while the middle says In God We Trust. The bottom has the mint mark on the left, the date in the middle, and M for MacNeil on the right.
That M identifies the coin designer, Herman MacNeil. 13 stars flank Miss Liberty and on the right, it says AU 24K ¼ oz. This refers to the coin’s content, a ¼ oz. of 99.99% pure gold. As for the reverse of the 2016 Gold Bullion Quarter, it has a flying eagle with E Pluribus Unum between its wings. The top has United States of America and the bottom says Quarter Dollar.
Unlike the clad and silver quarters produced that year, the 2016 Gold Bullion Quarter was 22mm in diameter and weighed 7.76g. It had 119 reeds on its edge and was only minted at West Point so every coin had the W Mint Mark. The original sale price at the mint was $485. It was released to commemorate the 100th Anniversary of the 1916 Standing Liberty Quarter.

2016 Quarter Grading Guides
Ultra-modern coins (minted after 1982) are generally in good condition. And those minted after 2005 were done digitally so they’re graded on a different spectrum. But we still use the Sheldon Scale from 1 to 70, with 1 as Poor and 70 as Mint State. These coins are visually exceptional, but they’re not rare so they’re not too pricy. Check for hairline details instead.

| 2 | Fair |
| 3 | Very Fair |

2016-S Clad Proof Quarter Values
The difference between Proof Coins and Uncirculated Coins depends on the year. Sometimes mint workers select high-quality business strikes and package them as Uncirculated Sets or Mint Sets. But as we said before, from 2011 onwards, Uncirculated Sets had a Brilliant Finish to resemble proofs. So these two coin types are distinguished by the type of coin die they had.
Both coins have burnished planchets tumbled with 6mm stainless steel balls for that mirror-like sheen. But while Uncirculated Sets use business strike dies, Proof Coins use special proof dies that are polished with horsehair brushes and pickled with acid (until 1970) or lasers for a frosted texture. Also, Special Strikes are evenly shiny but Proofs have device-field contrast.
2016-S Clad Proof Shawnee Quarter Value
660,215 Clad Proof Shawnee Quarters were struck in San Francisco in 2016. A PR 70 DCAM sold for $70 on eBay in February 2018. But with almost 900 known, they’re just $22 in 2023.

2016-S Clad Proof Theodore Roosevelt Quarter Value
660,215 Clad Proof Theodore Roosevelt Quarters were struck in San Francisco in 2016. eBay sold a PR 70 DCAM for $50 in December 2020. PCGS has seen almost 750. They’re now $25.

479,657 Silver Proof Theodore Roosevelt Quarters were struck in 2016. A PR 70 DCAM sold for $43 on eBay in June 2018. Almost 2,000 were sent to PCGS, worth $24 in October 2023.

2016 West Point Quarter Values
In 2016, the West Point Mint made 91,752 Quarters. While their face value was 25c, these coins were pure 24K gold so they were worth a lot more due to their precious metal content. The coins were not for circulation. They were bullion coins, which is a way for ordinary folk to buy and store gold or silver. The coins were graded SP for Special Strike with Satin Finish.
As we mentioned, the initial price of these coins was $485. On 30th March 2021, an eBay vendor sold a 2016-W Quarter graded SP 70 for $2,300. It’s the highest possible grade, but so far, over 10,000 pieces have been submitted to PCGS so their value in October 2023 is down to $850. An SP 69 is $700 with over 1,600 submitted, and an SP 67 goes for $650.

Rare 2016 Quarter Errors List
On newer coins, it’s harder to find mint errors because the production of the currency is computerized from the design stage to die production and pressing. But mint mistakes can still raise the premium of your coin, especially since high-quality coins are so common. Let’s look at some of the 2016 Quarter Errors that can add a few hundred dollars to resale prices.
Two examples include elliptical clips and deteriorated dies. Elliptical clips happen when the coin is struck on a blank that isn’t perfectly round. Deteriorated dies mean coins were struck using a die that was approaching the end of its viability so the details were blurred and the coin came out hazy. This error could also be caused by a die cap i.e. a blank stuck on the die.
