1932 Washington Quarter - 1st Year of Issue - P - UNC

The Washington Quarter was released in 1932 on the 200th anniversary of George Washington's Birth. At the time the coin was meant to be one-year issue honoring our great nation's first Commander in Chief, but due to overwhelming popularity Congress authorized the design to be continued. The public LOVED the Washington Quarter and with its beautiful design and .900 silver content, it is easy to see why!... Its' been issued yearly since 1934.

The Washington Quarter has always been popular...but it went to another level when the US Mint chose the quarter denomination for its ground-breaking 50 State Quarter program. The State Quarter Series lasted for over 11 years (the 50 State and 6 Territories) and introduced hundreds of millions of new collectors to the world of United States coin collecting. In essence, a larger portion of MODERN coin collecting within the United States owes its existence to the popularity of the Washington Quarter!!

Do not miss out on your chance to get the 1st Year Washington quarter that became a staple of United States Numismatics!

Did you know? Originally Congress wanted to put Washington on the Walking Liberty Half Dollar for the year, but ended up displacing, and then replacing, the Standing Liberty Quarter with our beloved Washington Quarter we use today!
