Washington Quarter

Brief Description

The obverse features a profile of George Washington facing left with the word "LIBERTY" above and the date below. The reverse (not shown) depicts an eagle with wings spread.

Historical Significance

1964 was the final year that the United States minted quarters for circulation with a 90% silver content. Starting in 1965, the composition was changed to a copper-nickel clad format due to rising silver prices.

Estimated Value

$5.00 - $10.00 (primarily based on silver melt value and condition)

Care Instructions

Do not clean the coin as this can create microscopic scratches that reduce its value to collectors. Handle by the edges and store in a PVC-free plastic flip or archival-safe container.
