The tallest lighthouse, Cape Hatteras, is majestically depicted on a North Carolina quarter. Montauk Point Light, on the New York quarter, was the first lighthouse built completely by the Federal Government (in 1796), and until the Statue of Liberty was erected in 1886, was the welcoming beacon of freedom and opportunity that greeted immigrants arriving on our shores. Lighthouses have aided mariners for thousands of years, alerting sailors that their ships were close to shore, both at night and in stormy weather. The very first lighthouse in the New World was erected at the entrance to Boston Harbor in 1716. These "beacons of the night" proliferated rapidly in America, and were crucial to the growth of the colonies, which depended heavily on maritime trade. Modern technology has brought the era of classic manned lighthouses to a close, and only a few hundred are left in America, in various states of repair. Many have become heavily-visited tourist attractions, and lighthouse collectibles of all kinds are now extremely popular. These coins all began as statehood quarters, to which the mints artists have added colorization, honoring the most interesting and important lighthouses in the United States. Recalling America's great maritime heritage, these lighthouse quarters make great collectibles and gifts. HIGHLIGHTS: First Ever U.S. Colorized Quarter Set featuring Historic Lighthouses.
