Historical significance

This coin is part of the United States Mint's 50 State Quarters Program, which honored each U.S. state with a unique design on the reverse of the quarter. The Hawaii quarter was the 50th and final coin released in the series, commemorating Hawaii's admission into the Union in 1959. The design was chosen to represent significant aspects of Hawaii's history and culture, specifically through the state seal.

Estimated value

Circulated: $0.25 - $0.50; Uncirculated: $1 - $5. (Note: These values are approximate and can vary based on condition, mint mark, and market demand.)

Care & preservation

Handle the coin by its edges to prevent oils from fingers from damaging the surface. Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in an archival-safe holder like a coin flip, slab, or album specifically designed for numismatic items. Avoid cleaning the coin as this can decrease its numismatic value.
