Reverse
 
The reverse of the Mount Rushmore issue presents a unique perspective by depicting the sculptors actively at work on Mount Rushmore, capturing the immense scale and artistry involved in carving the 60-foot granite faces of four U.S. presidents. The design emphasizes both the human effort and vision behind this enduring national symbol. The inscription “E Pluribus Unum” appears within the composition, reinforcing the monument’s national significance.
 
Obverse
 
The obverse features the classic left-profile portrait of George Washington, as designed by John Flanagan for the Washington quarter. This familiar design provides continuity across the ATB series and anchors the coin firmly in U.S. numismatic tradition.
 
Struck from five ounces of .999 fine silver, the 2013 Mount Rushmore ATB coin combines substantial bullion value with meaningful historical and artistic appeal. As a popular issue within the series and the final release of the year, it remains a highly desirable addition to any modern U.S. silver collection.
