2000 United States Mint Massachusetts State Quarter First Day Coin Cover
This official United States Mint First Day Coin Cover features two Massachusetts State Quarters struck at the Philadelphia and Denver mints on the first day of mintage, December 20, 1999. These uncirculated copper-nickel clad quarters are displayed in a decorative card that includes a 33-cent Flag Over City postage stamp with a postmark of January 3, 2000, from Boston, Massachusetts, marking the official day the coins were released to the public. The reverse design of the coin honors the "Bay State" by depicting the famous Minuteman statue against an outline of the state. This limited edition collectible comes in its original US Mint packaging, providing a historic narrative of the state’s ratification of the Constitution in 1788 and its Revolutionary War significance.

The accompanying text and the 33-cent Flag Over City postage stamp are clearly legible and well-preserved.
The coins in this set are Massachusetts State Quarters minted in 2000. This set features two quarters, one from the Philadelphia Mint and one from the Denver Mint. The metal content of these quarters is a copper-nickel clad composition, consisting of an outer layer of 75% copper and 25% nickel bonded to a pure copper core. Historically, this First Day Coin Cover commemorates the Massachusetts State Quarter, the sixth coin released in the 50 State Quarters Program.
