2012-P 5 oz ATB Acadia Silver Coin - Burnished (Cap Only)

Struck in .999 fine silver and bearing the Philadelphia Mint's "P" mark, the 2012-P Acadia ATB 5 oz coin pays tribute to one of America's most visually dramatic coastlines. This version features a burnished finish, giving the coin a soft matte texture and refined luster that appeals to serious collectors. It comes in its original capsule (cap only), preserving its condition while keeping it accessible for display.

Historical Insight:

Acadia National Park, established in 1916, was the first national park east of the Mississippi and remains one of the most visited in the United States. It preserves the rich maritime and cultural heritage of Maine's Mount Desert Island, where crashing waves, granite cliffs, and historic lighthouses meet ancient forests and glacier-carved mountains. The 2012-P burnished Acadia coin celebrates not just a location, but the early legacy of conservation in the eastern U.S.—a reminder of nature's majesty in every matte-finished detail.

The reverse design spotlights the Bass Harbor Head Lighthouse, a sentinel of safety perched on a rugged Maine cliff, its beam cutting through Atlantic fog. It's a powerful representation of strength, resilience, and guidance—perfectly aligned with the themes of America's National Parks.
