New Hampshire State Quarter: History & Background

The New Hampshire quarter depicts the Old Man of the Mountain, a natural rock formation of five granite ledges on Cannon Mountain in Franconia Notch that resembled an elderly man's profile. The formation tragically collapsed in May 2003, three years after the quarter's release, making this coin a lasting memorial. The state motto 'Live Free or Die' accompanies the image.

How to Grade a New Hampshire State Quarter

Accurate grading is the single most important factor in determining a coin's value. A difference of just a few grade points can mean 10× or more in value. Examine the highest points of the design first — these are where wear appears earliest. For the finest grades, luster, strike quality, and surface preservation all matter. Professional grading by PCGS or NGC adds certainty and typically increases resale value. Read our complete grading guide →
