In recognition of the 2026 Semi quincentennial, 250 years of the United States of America, the United States Mint will issue five new quarters celebrating our Nation.

Be among the first to get the 2026 Mayflower Compact quarter recognizing the colony at Plymouth and the Compact as a precursor to the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution.

For one year only, the U.S. Mint is celebrating the 2026 Semi quincentennial through special coins and medals with design changes to most of our circulating coins. These coins commemorate American Liberty, reflecting our country’s founding principles and honoring our Nation’s history.

The Mayflower Compact quarter obverse features two Pilgrims embracing as they behold the New World. The Pilgrims did not arrive at their intended destination; therefore, they did not hold a charter to establish a colony at Plymouth. Instead, the Mayflower Compact, signed November 21, 1620, established the colony as a mutual enterprise, and its force of law depended on the consent of the colonists themselves to promote the common good. The Mayflower Compact is considered a precursor to the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution. The inscriptions are “E PLURIBUS UNUM,” “1776 ~ 2026,” and “IN GOD WE TRUST.”

The 2026 Mayflower Compact quarter reverse features the Mayflower, with full sails over rough seas, heading west. The Pilgrims aboard sought religious freedom in the New World, eventually landing at Cape Cod and settling in what later became Plymouth, Massachusetts. The inscriptions are “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “LIBERTY,” “MAYFLOWER COMPACT,” and “25¢.”
