<p>[QUOTE="Phil Ham, post: 3889982, member: 5787"]The Frank Church River of No Return puck went on sale on 14 November 2019. It is the 50th puck in the ATB series. Other pucks continue to have weak sales and it will be interesting to see if the Idaho puck follows the same trend. The US mint hasn't released sales figures since the 3rd of November so we have no sales data yet. Other pucks available at the mint include the Cumberland Island, Block Island, Lowell, American Memorial Park, War in the Pacific, and San Antonito pucks. I rate the design of the latest puck as better than average. It is better than the San Antonio puck design but not quite as good as American Memorial Park puck. Here is some information on the puck from the mint website.</p><p><br /></p><p>The America the Beautiful Five Ounce Silver Uncirculated Coin™ – Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness (Idaho) is the fifth and last release of 2019 in the America the Beautiful Quarters Program. This reverse (tails) design depicts a piloted drift boat on the rushing river encompassed by the trees and rock formations of the wilderness. The puck is made up of rugged mountains, deep canyons, and wild whitewater rivers, including the Main Salmon River and Middle Fork of the Salmon River. Designated a national site in 1980, the River of No Return Wilderness was later renamed in honor of the late U.S. Senator Frank Church, who played a leading role in its establishment as a protected wilderness. The area encompasses more than 2.3 million acres, is the largest single connected wilderness in the contiguous States, and contains four national forests. It is known for the variety of landscapes visible from the river, including wooded ridges rising to the sky, huge eroded monuments and bluffs, picturesque castles and towers, and solitary steep, rugged rocks.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1026459[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
