Description
This is a United States Quarter Dollar coin, likely from the 1965 to 1974 period, featuring the profile of George Washington on the obverse and an eagle on the reverse. The coin is composed of a copper-nickel clad composition and has a reeded edge. Its standard diameter is 24.26 mm and it weighs 5.67 grams. This particular coin appears to be in circulated condition.
History
The Washington Quarter series, designed by John Flanagan, began in 1932 to commemorate the bicentennial of George Washington's birth. The design has remained largely consistent, with the reverse featuring an eagle adopted from the Great Seal of the United States. While the original composition was silver, clad coinage with a copper-nickel composition was introduced in 1965, and this example falls within that era, produced at the Philadelphia Mint.
Facts
The change to clad coinage in 1965 was a significant shift, ending the use of silver in most circulating US coinage. The eagle design on the reverse, a powerful national symbol, has been a prominent feature of American currency for centuries. Quarters are a common denomination, making them widely collected and recognized, with many series and variations appealing to numismatists.
Value Fact
Circulated Washington Quarters from the 1965-1974 period generally hold minimal numismatic value, often trading close to their face value or in bulk. However, specific dates or mint marks, especially those with low mintage or significant errors, can command higher prices. Demand is steady, driven by both casual collectors and those completing date/mint mark sets.
