Brief Description

The reverse of the coin features a heraldic eagle clutching an olive branch and arrows, surrounded by the text 'UNITED STATES OF AMERICA' and 'QUAR. DOL.' The coin appears heavily tarnished with dark environmental damage or corrosion.

Estimated Value

$5.00 - $15.00 (Varies based on silver melt value and specific date/mint mark; value is significantly reduced due to heavy corrosion/damage)

Care Instructions

Do not attempt to clean or scrub the coin, as this can further damage the surface and reduce collector value. Store in a PVC-free plastic holder or an acid-free envelope in a cool, dry place.
