Obverse

On the obverse field of the 2015-P Burnished ATB Homestead 5 oz Silver Coin is President George Washington. This 1932 design was created by John Flanagan and shows the first President of the United States in left-profile relief. President Washingtons bust was put on the circulation quarter in 1932 to honor the 200th anniversary of his birth.

Reverse

The reverse side of 2015-P Burnished ATB Homestead 5 oz Silver Coins depicts a humble log cabin with corn stalks and a water well in the design field. This is meant to reflect the necessary items for American settlers to survive when moving west: food, water, and shelter. The Homestead National Monument of America is located in the US state of Nebraska near the first tract of land claimed by an American citizen following passage of the Homestead Act of 1862.

History

The Homestead Act of 1862 was passed by Congress and signed into law by President Abraham Lincoln to encourage the westward expansion of the growing US populace. The terms of the act granted up to 160 acres of public, federal government land to private individuals in exchange for five years of work improving and cultivating the land. If the latter was completed within five years, the land was free to the individual. Some 270 million acres of public land was transferred to private hands as a result of the Homestead Act of 1862.
