Historical Significance
Stretching through Virginia and North Carolina, Blue Ridge Parkway was developed during the Great Depression to connect Shenandoah National Park and Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The parkway is celebrated for its natural beauty, cultural heritage, and role in early conservation and infrastructure development.
Collectibility
The 2015-D Blue Ridge Parkway Quarter is popular with America the Beautiful collectors for its strong landscape imagery and historical context. Circulated examples are common, while well-struck uncirculated coins with clean fields and original luster are favored for complete date-and-mint sets.
