The United States Mint will officially release the new Hawaii Volcanoes National Park quarter during a ceremony on August 29, 2012 near Kilauea, the Big Island Hawaii volcano depicted on the coin. Established as Hawaii National Parkin 1916, Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park displays the results of 70 millionyears of volcanism, migration and evolution—processes that thrust a bare landup from the sea, creating unique ecosystems and a distinct human culture. Created to preserve the natural setting of Kilauea and Mauna Loa volcanoes,Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park is one of the most fascinating biological landscapes in the world. The Hawaiian Archipelago, located more than 2,000 miles from the nearest continental land mass, is the most geographically isolated group of islands on Earth. It was first established as a national site on August 1, 1916 (39 Stat. 432). More recently, the volcano Kilauea, which has been erupting since 1983, offers visitors glimpses of lava flows as they pour down the mountain and into the ocean. These lava flows have contributed to the island’s expansion as they cool when they hit the water and become rock. The terrain in this park is unique as there are volcanic deserts, rain forests, and other varieties of terrain. The elevations range from sea level to over 13,000 feet at the top of Mauna Loa. The park was significantly expanded in 2004 with the purchase of over 110,000 acres of land from the Samuel Mills Damon Estate. As a result, the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park grew by 56% because of this purchase. It’s no wonder that each year, over 1.5 million tourists make their way to the park. Not only does Hawaii offer excellent beaches, but also a chance to see an active volcano up close. Shipment. READY TO SHIP.
