2011 PCGS MS-69 DMPL First Strike 5 oz America The Beautiful Silver 5-Coin Set
The US Mint introduced the America The Beautiful Quarter Program in 2010 and crafted alluring silver coins for the series until 2021.
During that period, the mint crafted 56 designs that featured on both circulating quarters, and a collection of 5 Troy oz coins of 99.9% fine silver. Each design stamped one of America’s most emblematic parks, monuments, and forests.
2011 marked the second strike of the America The Beautiful series, and it imprinted the Gettysburg Military National Park, Glacier National Park, Olympic National Park, Vicksburg Military Park, and Chickasaw National Recreation Area.
At SD Bullion, you can acquire the 2011 America The Beautiful Silver 5-Coin Set, which gathers the five silver coins released that year. They were purchased from the US Mint within 30 days of their official release and individually graded by PCGS as MS-69 DMPL coins.

A PCGS MS-69 DMPL “First Strikes” Coin
Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS) works independently of sovereign mints. It evaluates and grades coins using the Sheldon Grading Scale, which rates coins from 1 to 70 according to their condition.
PCGS calls “First Strikes” the coins purchased from the original mint within the first 30 days of the official release and submitted to its appraisal.
MS stands for Mint State. Mint State coins are shaped as business coins. Grade 69 is attributed to coins whose flaws are almost invisible.
According to PCGS, DMPL stands for Deep Mirror Proof-Like and refers to coins struck for circulation but with unusual mirror-like fields and frosted design details that are very similar to Proof coins.
