Overview

A United States quarter featuring a cow, a round of cheese, and an ear of corn on the reverse.

Historical significance

Part of the 50 State Quarters Program (1999-2008), the Wisconsin quarter was the 30th coin released in the series, honoring the state known as 'America's Dairyland'.

Obverse (front)

Portrait of George Washington by John Flanagan, with inscriptions: 'UNITED STATES OF AMERICA', 'LIBERTY', 'IN GOD WE TRUST', and 'QUARTER DOLLAR'.

Reverse (back)

Features a cow's head, a wheel of cheese, and an ear of corn. Inscriptions include 'WISCONSIN', '1848', the year '2004', and 'E PLURIBUS UNUM'. Designer: Alfred Maletsky.

Estimated value

$0.25 in circulated condition; $1-$3 in uncirculated; high-grade varieties (Extra Leaf) can range from $50 to $300+.

What drives this coin's value

Mint condition, presence of the 'Extra Leaf' error varieties, and the specific mint mark.

Grade assessment

Circulated (image is blurry, but appears to be a standard pocket-wear coin).

Mintage & rarity

Common; total mintage of approximately 453 million coins between Denver and Philadelphia.

Authenticity & counterfeit red flags

Check for crispness of details and the correct weight of 5.67g. Counterfeits of standard quarters are rare, but 'Extra Leaf' errors should be verified by a professional.

Notable varieties & errors

The 'Extra High Leaf' and 'Extra Low Leaf' varieties found on Denver-minted specimens are highly sought after by collectors and significantly more valuable than standard strikes.

Care & preservation

Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid cleaning or polishing as it removes the original surface luster and lowers collector value. Use PVC-free flips or capsules.
