Overview

A standard circulating United States quarter dollar featuring the temporary Crossing the Delaware reverse design used in 2021 before the American Women Quarters series began.

Historical significance

Issued in 2021 to bridge the gap between the America the Beautiful Quarters and the American Women Quarters, featuring the iconic design of General George Washington crossing the Delaware River on December 25-26, 1776, reminiscent of the 1976 Bicentennial quarter reverse.

Obverse (front)

Features a modified right-facing portrait of George Washington originally designed by John Flanagan, with the inscriptions 'LIBERTY', 'IN GOD WE TRUST', and the year '2021'.

Reverse (back)

Depicts General George Washington commanding his troops as they stealthily cross the Delaware River, with inscriptions 'UNITED STATES OF AMERICA', 'E PLURIBUS UNUM', and the quarter denomination.

Estimated value

$0.25 face value (higher in pristine Mint State uncirculated or error conditions)

What drives this coin's value

Condition grade (MS65 or higher), striking errors such as doubled dies or off-center strikes, and pristine eye appeal.

Grade assessment

About Uncirculated to Mint State (AU/MS) with minor bag marks typical of circulation.

Mintage & rarity

High mintage, very common and easily found in daily pocket change.

Authenticity & counterfeit red flags

Counterfeits are virtually non-existent for modern circulating quarters due to low face value; simply verify weight and magnetic properties if suspicious.

Notable varieties & errors

Occasional minor doubled die obverse errors and die chip varieties reported by collectors.
