The obverse side features a profile portrait of George Washington facing left. Around the border are the words 'UNITED STATES OF AMERICA', 'LIBERTY', and 'QUARTER DOLLAR'. The 'D' mint mark indicates it was struck in Denver.

Care Instructions

Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid cleaning with chemicals or abrasive materials, as this can damage the surface and reduce collector value. Use acid-free coin holders for long-term storage.
