Silver Washington Quarter dated 1941

The Washington Quarter was introduced in 1932 to commemorate the 200th anniversary of George Washington's birth. From 1932 to 1964, these quarters were struck in 90% silver and 10% copper, making them valuable both numismatically and for their precious metal content. The 1941 issue was minted during World War II, a period when American coinage still maintained its silver composition. These coins are highly sought after by coin collectors, particularly those specializing in 20th-century American coinage and silver coins. The Washington Quarter series appeals to numismatists for its historical significance, artistic design by sculptor John Flanagan, and intrinsic silver value. Collectors prize these coins for completing date and mintmark sets, while silver stackers value them for their precious metal content at approximately 0.18 troy ounces of pure silver per coin.
