This 1976 quarter is a collector's dream. Its distinctive design includes a drummer on the back and 1776-1976. A 40% silver variety makes it unusual and precious.
1
Key date for collectors is the 1932-D Washington quarter. Its mintage is 436,800, one of the lowest in the Washington quarter series.
2
Like its Denver-minted predecessor, the 1932-S is popular. It's uncommon in uncirculated form despite having a somewhat greater mintage than the 1932-D.
3
Due to low mintage in proof sets, the 1942-P proof quarter is rare. These quarters were carefully struck to seem mirror-like. A well-preserved 1942-P proof quarter may fetch $12,000 because to its rarity and striking quality.
4
The Denver mintmark was imprinted over the San Francisco mintmark on this quarter, a rare blunder. Collectors find this inaccuracy unique and fascinating since it was found years later.
5
Another early Washington series quarter, the 1937-S, is uncommon. This quarter is hard to obtain uncirculated because to its low mintage.
6
Due to wartime metal consumption, 1943-S quarters are rare in good grades. A good quarter from this year may cost over $6,000, making it desired among collectors.
7
The 1950-S/D quarter is another overmintmark mistake. The San Francisco mintmark was put over Denver this time. Well-preserved mistake coins cost over $6,000.
