All five 2016 America the Beautiful Quarters proof set finish, protectively encased in a clear plastic lens and outer packaging. U.S. Mint proof coins feature sharp relief and a mirror-like background. Their frosted, sculpted foregrounds give them an exceptional cameo effect.

The coins are then packaged in a protective lens to showcase and maintain their exceptional finish.
