The 2010 Yellowstone National Park Quarter is the second release of the new America the Beautiful Quarter series. Although Yellowstone is known as America's first National Park, it is featured second in the series since the site at Hot Springs was designated as a federal reserve at an earlier date.
The Yellowstone Quarter has an obverse design featuring a portrait of George Washington. This is a restored version of the original design by John Flanagan for the 1932 Washington Quarter. The reverse design features an image of Old Faithful, with buffalo in the foreground and background of the image. The reverse was designed and sculpted by Don Everhart.
The United States Mint and National Park Service launched this quarter near the Old Faithful geyser on June the 3rd. You can read about the event here.
