Overview

Features a left-facing profile of George Washington on the obverse. The rim appears heavily damaged or 'clipped' by post-minting impact. The reverse (not shown) typically depicts a bald eagle with wings spread.

Historical significance

1964 was the final year the United States minted quarters for general circulation with a 90% silver content. Starting in 1965, the composition was changed to a copper-nickel clad due to rising silver prices.

Estimated value

$4.00 - $6.00 (Primarily based on the melt value of its silver content; the damage significantly reduces numismatic collector value).

Care & preservation

Avoid using chemical cleaners or abrasive clothes, which can further damage the silver. Store in a cool, dry place inside a non-PVC coin holder to prevent tarnishing.
