First introduced in 1932, this coin has remained in production for decades and is second only to the Lincoln Penny in its duration.

Obverse

The obverse side of the Washington Quarter features a left-facing portrait of George Washington, the first President of the United States. This design was created by John Flanagan and has been a central part of the quarters appearance since its introduction. Youll find inscriptions such as Liberty, the national motto, and the coins date.

Reverse

On the reverse side of these quarters is a heraldic eagle design, also by Flanagan. This image shows an American bald eagle with its wings spread wide, facing left. The eagle holds a bundle of arrows in its talons, with an olive branch placed below. Some of the coins may include mint marks from the Denver, San Francisco, or West Point Mints, though Philadelphia-minted coins will not have a mark.

History

The Washington Quarter replaced the Standing Liberty design after Congress ended that program in 1930. The new design was introduced in 1932 to commemorate the 200th anniversary of George Washingtons birth. It has remained a staple of US coinage ever since.
