Overview

Historical significance

The Washington Quarter was first minted in 1932 to commemorate the 200th anniversary of George Washington's birth. The 1945 issue falls within the period of World War II and the immediate post-war era, during which it remained a circulating currency. Coins from this period are significant as they were minted with 90% silver, a practice that ended for circulating quarters in 1964.

Estimated value

The coin is graded PGA MS67+. An estimated value for a 1945 Washington Quarter in MS67+ condition can range from $200 to $400 or more, depending on the specific strike quality, toning, and market demand. (Note: This is an estimate; actual value can vary.)

Care & preservation

To preserve its condition, this coin should be kept in its professional grading slab. Avoid removing it from the slab or handling the coin directly with bare hands. Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperature fluctuations. Do not clean the coin, as this can severely damage its surface and reduce its numismatic value.
