Last night I attended a coin forum sponsored by the U.S. Mint at the Ernest F. Coe Visitor center at the park:

The coin forum is a means for the Mint to explain its current activities and receive input from the public. They do this prior to every quarter launch.
I'll post some pictures later of the park itself. Uploading is very slow here.
I've got some shots of the park in these two albums. the first day I went to the Visitor center, Royal Palm, and the Flamingo Visitor Center. The second day I went back to the same places to do some things I didn't do the first day.
There is no numismatic content.

I just received the P & D Everglades quarters from a friend in the U.S. and now my set is complete right up to 2014. :yahoo:
