The 2001-P Rhode Island Quarter was officially released on May 21, 2001. The obverse features the same George Washington motif used from 1999 to date. The reverse features a vintage sailboat gliding through Narragansett Bay.

Most examples of the Rhode Island Quarter were well struck. Examples in MS68 appear to be scarce but possibly thousands still exist in rolls and bags. In MS69 they are very difficult to come by and very few examples are known in this condition or higher.
