Overview

The obverse features a profile of George Washington facing left, with the word 'LIBERTY' above, the motto 'IN GOD WE TRUST' to the left, and the date '1974' below.

Historical significance

The Washington quarter was first introduced in 1932 to commemorate the 200th anniversary of George Washington's birth. By 1974, it was the standard circulating quarter in the U.S., following the transition from silver to clad composition in 1965.

Estimated value

$0.25 (face value) in circulated condition; up to $1-$5 in uncirculated (MS65) condition.

Care & preservation

Keep in a cool, dry place. Avoid cleaning with chemicals or abrasives as this can damage the surface and reduce collector value. Handle by the edges to avoid fingerprint oils.
