Coins - 1999 Mint Set - larger images

The 1999 mint set included two informational inserts and two cards describing the 50 state quarters program with one of each for Denver and for Philadelphia.

The front of both inserts in the 1999 mint set shows a partial portrait of George Washington facing right with the title "1999 United States Mint Uncirculated Coin Set" in front of a partial American flag.

The Denver insert is red-toned.

Inside each insert, the US Mint discusses the 1999 mint set as the "last uncirculated set of this century" and introduces the new five state quarters being minted in 1999.

The red text notes these are "Uncirculated Versions of All U.S. Legal Tender Coins from the Denver Mint."

The 1999 mint set is the first year for the 50 state quarters. The US Mint included a separate card announcing the program and providing the year when each state's quarter would be released.

The red card was included in the Denver envelope.
