This coin is a 1962 Washington Quarter, minted in Denver (indicated by the 'D' mint mark). It is part of the Washington Quarters series, which features a depiction of George Washington on the obverse (front) side and an eagle on the reverse (back) side. The quarter is denominated at 25 cents, or one quarter of a dollar, and has become an iconic representation of U.S. currency. The coin has a diameter of 24.3 millimeters and weighs 6.25 grams. It is composed of silver, which adds to its appeal among collectors. In 1962, a total of 127,554,756 of these quarters were minted, reflecting a significant production run during that year. Despite its commonality due to the high mintage, the 1962-D Washington Quarter can still hold value for collectors, particularly if it is in uncirculated or high-grade condition. The coin represents a historical piece of American currency, embodying both numismatic interest and the legacy of the nation's first president.
