Immediately following World War I, the United States military began investing in aviation education for civilians. Laws of segregation in the United States excluded African Americans from enrolling in Civilian Pilot Training Programs (CPTP). Litigation brought forward by the NAACP, on behalf of Howard University student Yancey Williams, resulted in African Americans being permitted to train as military pilots. In 1939, six historically black colleges and universities were selected to begin CPTP training. The highest performing program was at Alabama’s famed Tuskegee Institute, founded in 1881 by Booker T. Washington. Because of the excellence of Tuskegee’s CPTP and influence of flight instructor Charles “Chief” Anderson and First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt, the Institute was selected in 1941 to host the first African American training facility for an Army Air Corp unit. It became the nucleus for several fighter squadrons, technical units, and bombardment units associated with the Tuskegee Airmen. Flying in the Mediterranean theater of operations during World War II, the Tuskegee Airmen completed 15,000 sorties in approximately 1,500 missions; destroyed more than 260 enemy aircraft; sank one enemy destroyer; and demolished numerous enemy installations. The Airmen were awarded several high honors, and their achievements proved conclusively that the Tuskegee Airmen were highly disciplined and capable fighters, earning the respect of fellow bomber crews and military leaders. Established in 1998, the Tuskegee Airmen National Historic Site commemorates the heroic actions and achievements of the famous Tuskegee Airmen. The site preserves five historic structures used during primary flight training in World War II. They are Moton Field, Hangar I, the bath and locker building, the All Ranks Club (also known as the Skyway Club), and Hangar II. This reverse (tails) design depicts a Tuskegee Airman pilot suiting up to join the fight during World War II with the Moton Field control tower in the background. The pilot looks upward with pride and confidence as two P-51 Mustangs pass overhead. The inscription “THEY FOUGHT TWO WARS” is arced across the top as a reference to the dual battles the Tuskegee Airmen fought—fascism abroad and racial discrimination at home. Other inscriptions are "TUSKEGEE AIRMEN," "ALABAMA," "2021," and "E PLURIBUS UNUM."SpecificationsDenomination:QuarterComposition:8.33% Nickel, Balance CopperWeight:5.670 gramsDiameter:0.955 inch (24.26 mm)Edge:Reeded The 56 coins are presented and housed in a beautiful display folder. Which mint mark is on the National Park quarters?(P (Philadelphia) and D (Denver) appear on circulating and Brilliant Uncirculated coins, while the E (San Francisco) Mint appears on Proof coins and Silver Proof coins.). Does the Mint still produce National Park quarters?(In 2010, the United States Mint began issuing 56 quarter-dollar coins featuring designs depicting national parks and other national sites as part of the United States Mint America the Beautiful Quarters Program.). Which National Park quarters are most difficult to find?(Easily, the most difficult and coveted designs will be the West Point Mint 2019 Quarters. For National Coin Week in 2019, the U.S. Mint produced two million of each of the five designs of America the Beautiful quarters with the “W” mint mark into circulation.). How much are National Park quarters worth?(As prices fluctuate, it is hard to put a specific price on a coin. Obviously the Silver Proofs sell for more, based in their intrinsic value due to their composition. Error coins also fluctuate because many times, they are thought to be unique, but over time, become more common. Certainly, any of the 2019 West Point Quarters will be more valuable – simply because 2 million is only a fraction of what is produced at the Denver and Philadelphia Mints.). Are there any valuable National Parks Quarter Errors in existence?(While there aren’t any notable errors found to date, there are some doubling errors floating around that have a very small premium. Unlike true double die errors, these are apparently caused by worn dies.).
