Overview

A United States quarter dollar featuring the portrait of George Washington on the obverse and an eagle on the reverse.

Historical significance

The Washington Quarter was first released in 1932 to commemorate the 200th anniversary of George Washington's birth. The 1992 issue belongs to the long-running original eagle-back series that preceded the Statehood Quarters program.

Obverse (front)

Left-facing profile of George Washington by John Flanagan, with 'LIBERTY', 'IN GOD WE TRUST', and the date '1992'.

Reverse (back)

An American eagle with spread wings perched on a bundle of arrows above two olive branches. Legends include 'UNITED STATES OF AMERICA', 'E PLURIBUS UNUM', and 'QUARTER DOLLAR'.

Estimated value

$0.25 in circulated condition; $1-$3 in uncirculated (MS-63 to MS-65) condition.

What drives this coin's value

Condition/Grade is the primary factor for this common date. High-grade specimens (MS-67 or higher) or errors may carry a premium.

Grade assessment

Circulated (Approx. Fine to Very Fine); visible wear on Washington's hair and the eagle's breast feathers.

Mintage & rarity

Common; 384,764,000 minted at Denver in 1992.

Authenticity & counterfeit red flags

Authentic coins will have a visible copper streak on the reeded edge. Check for 'mushy' details or incorrect weight which may indicate a counterfeit.

Notable varieties & errors

None widely recognized for this specific date/mint, though major errors like off-center strikes are always sought after by collectors.

Similar coins

1992-P (Philadelphia) and 1992-S (San Francisco Proof or Silver Proof versions). Distinguished by the mint mark near the ponytail.

Care & preservation

Store in a dry, cool place. Avoid cleaning or polishing as it destroys numismatic value. Use archival-safe flips or holders if the coin is in high-grade condition.
