1996-P Washington Quarter Dollar

This is a United States Washington Quarter with a visible minted date of 1996. The coin's composition is a standard cupro-nickel clad (75% copper, 25% nickel over a pure copper core). It features the classic John Flanagan-designed profile of George Washington facing left on the obverse side. Above the head is the word 'LIBERTY', and to the left of the neck is the motto 'IN GOD WE TRUST'. To the right of the neck, a small 'P' mint mark is discernible, indicating production at the Philadelphia Mint. The coin appears to be in circulated condition, showing moderate wear on the high points of Washington's hair and facial features. There is a visible patina or localized darkening across the surface, likely due to handling and oxidation. The reeded edge is consistent with standard U.S. Mint specifications for this denomination. No significant mint errors or unique die variations are immediately visible from this angle. Given its age and circulated state, it represents a common specimen of modern American coinage from the late 20th century.
