Overview

A 2024 United States quarter featuring George Washington on the obverse and Dr. Mary Edwards Walker on the reverse.

Historical significance

Part of the American Women Quarters Program. This specific issue honors Dr. Mary Edwards Walker, a Civil War surgeon, women's rights advocate, and the only woman to receive the Medal of Honor. The dual date 1776-2026 on the obverse marks the upcoming Semiquincentennial (250th anniversary) of the United States.

Obverse (front)

Laura Gardin Fraser's portrait of George Washington, originally intended for the 1932 quarter. Includes 'E PLURIBUS UNUM', 'IN GOD WE TRUST', and dual date '1776-2026'.

Reverse (back)

Depicts Dr. Mary Edwards Walker wearing her professional surgical uniform, a top hat, and the Medal of Honor. Detailed imagery includes federal-style buildings and the word 'LIBERTY' alongside '25c' and the designation 'DR. MARY EDWARDS WALKER'.

Estimated value

Circulated: $0.25 (Face value); Uncirculated/High Grade: $1.00 - $5.00

What drives this coin's value

Condition/Grade is the primary factor. High-grade specimens (MS-67 or higher) and error coins (such as die cracks or doubled dies) carry premium value.

Grade assessment

Mint State / Uncirculated (appears to have original luster and very few marks in the image provided).

Mintage & rarity

Common. Mintage for the series runs in the hundreds of millions.

Authenticity & counterfeit red flags

Check for crispness of detail, correct weight, and a distinct copper core visible on the edge. Counterfeits of modern circulating quarters are extremely rare.

Notable varieties & errors

Die cracks, 'leaking' metal errors, or doubled dies specifically on the reverse legends or Dr. Walker's medal/uniform details are areas collectors monitor for this series.

Similar coins

Other quarters in the American Women Quarters series (2022-2025) and the 1976 Bicentennial Quarter which also features a dual date (1776-1976).

Care & preservation

Handle by the edges to avoid leaving skin oils on the surface. Store in a PVC-free coin flip or archival-safe container. Do not clean with chemicals or abrasives.
