The design of the Washington Quarter, struck for over 30 years, remains a symbol of American ideals. Historical Significance: The Washington Quarter was first issued in 1932, marking the 200th anniversary of George Washington’s birth. It was introduced as part of a larger effort by the U. Mint to honor notable figures and significant events in American history through coinage. The Washington Quarter replaced the Standing Liberty Quarter, and the series continued in production until 1964, when the composition changed due to the rising cost of silver. Mint was still producing coins with substantial silver content. The 90% silver quarters of this era are cherished not only for their beautiful designs but also for their intrinsic value. With the 1964 minting being the last year of silver coinage for circulating U. Quarters, these coins are a bridge between the classic era of silver coins and the modern, clad coins that followed.
