Overview

A 2001 United States quarter-dollar coin featuring the Statue of Liberty over an outline of the state of New York on the reverse.

Historical significance

The 11th coin released in the 50 State Quarters Program, which honored each of the 50 states in the order they ratified the Constitution or were admitted to the Union. New York joined the Union on July 26, 1788.

Obverse (front)

Restored version of the John Flanagan portrait of George Washington, facing left. Legends: 'UNITED STATES OF AMERICA', 'LIBERTY', 'IN GOD WE TRUST', 'QUARTER DOLLAR', and mint mark 'D'.

Reverse (back)

The Statue of Liberty superimposed over an outline of the state of New York, featuring the Hudson River and Erie Canal. Legends: 'NEW YORK 1788', 'GATEWAY TO FREEDOM', '2001', 'E PLURIBUS UNUM'. Eleven stars represent the 11th state. Designer: Alfred Maletsky.

Estimated value

$0.25 in circulated condition; $1.00 - $5.00 in high uncirculated (MS-65+) grades.

What drives this coin's value

Most circulated 50 State Quarters are only worth face value. Value increases for coins in pristine Mint State condition or those with recognized die errors.

Grade assessment

Circulated (Fine to Very Fine). The coin shows moderate surface wear and scattered contact marks visible in the images.

Mintage & rarity

Common; total mintage of 1,275,040,000 for the 2001-D New York quarter.

Authenticity & counterfeit red flags

Check for crisp details and the correct weight (5.67g). Genuine clad coins show a visible copper layer on the edge. Counterfeits for this common issue are rare.

Notable varieties & errors

Look for die chips or major striking errors, though no major high-value varieties are widely recognized for this specific date/mint.

Similar coins

Other 50 State Quarters are similar; they are distinguished by the unique reverse state design and state name at the top.

Care & preservation

Handle by the edges to avoid transferring skin oils. Store in a cool, dry place in a PVC-free holder or album. Do not clean, as this can degrade numismatic value.
