1964 Washington Quarter
This is a 1964 United States Washington Quarter, significant for being the final year the U.S. Mint produced circulating quarters composed of 90% silver and 10% copper. The coin features the left-facing profile of George Washington on the obverse, designed by John Flanagan. Above the bust is the word 'LIBERTY', with the date '1964' below and the motto 'IN GOD WE TRUST' to the left. The coin exhibits a bright, metallic silver luster with slight golden-yellow toning, likely from environmental exposure or storage on the fabric surface shown. Physically, it measures approximately 24.3mm in diameter with a reeded edge. The condition appears to be 'Circulated' with visible cabinet friction and minor contact marks consistent with light handling. There are no obvious mint marks visible on the obverse (mint marks for this era would be on the reverse, which is not shown). The strike quality appears average for the period, with the hair details still largely intact. The silver composition gives the coin an intrinsic bullion value in addition to its numismatic appeal, as quarters from 1965 onwards were transitioned to a copper-nickel clad composition.
