1964 Washington Quarter, 90% Silver
A 1964 Washington quarter — the last year the U.S. Mint struck quarters in 90% silver before the switch to clad coinage. Only the obverse is shown in this photo; reverse not pictured — verify in hand. Details: - Date: 1964 - Mint mark: not visible in photo — verify in hand - Denomination: Quarter dollar - Series: Washington quarter - Silver content: 90% silver (pre-1965) Heavily worn with significant surface corrosion, pitting, and encrustations across the face — likely a metal-detected find. The date and "IN GOD WE TRUST" are still legible, but detail on Washington's portrait is largely lost. Strictly a silver-content piece at this grade. 1964 marks the final year of the 90% silver Washington quarter — Congress passed the Coinage Act of 1965 the following year, stripping silver from dimes and quarters for good. *Generated with Gavel AI — please ask questions if the description doesn't seem right.
