Where was the America250 Revolutionary War quarter launched on March 23, 2026?
Answer
Mount Vernon
Answer
Mount Vernon
The America250 Revolutionary War quarter was launched at Mount Vernon on March 23, 2026.
Mount Vernon is the historic Virginia estate of George Washington, the Continental Army’s commander during the American Revolutionary War and the first president of the United States. Choosing his home for the coin’s launch connected the circulating quarter to both the Revolutionary War and the nation’s founding story.
The quarter was one of five 2026 semiquincentennial quarter designs authorized under the Circulating Collectible Coin Redesign Act of 2020. Production of the Revolutionary War quarter began in December 2025, and the coin entered circulation at the March 2026 launch.
Independence Hall is a natural mix-up because the Declaration of Independence and Constitution are closely associated with Philadelphia. Valley Forge and Bunker Hill are also Revolutionary War landmarks, but the documented launch location for this quarter was Mount Vernon.
