2014 Silver Proof Set

The 2014 United States Mint Silver Proof Set™ will be issued by the US Mint in 2014 and should contain a total of fourteen strikes, seven of which are 90% silver coins.

Contained in the 2014 Silver Proof Set are examples of all of the circulating coinage of the United States, but struck to proof quality at the US Mint’s facility in San Francisco. This typically results in a coin with a much higher level of detail than seen on business strikes.

The seven coins to be struck from 90% silver include the 2014 America the Beautiful Quarters®, the Kennedy Half Dollar and the Roosevelt Dime. These strikes feature the same obverse and reverse imagery as the standard circulation coins, but are composed of an alloy containing 90% silver instead of the typical clad composition.

The following fourteen quarters will be included in the 2014 Silver Proof Set:

Great Smoky Mountains National Park Quarter

The reverse of this precious metal coin will contain an image emblematic of Great Smoky Mountains National Park which is located in the state of Tennessee. For the obverse design, a portrait of George Washington, the first President of the United States will be shown, as designed by John Flanagan.
