This specific piece is a proof coin, which means it was produced using a special process to create a high-quality finish, making it particularly appealing to collectors. Measuring 24.3 mm in diameter, the quarter is composed of 75% copper and 25% nickel, surrounding a pure copper center, which gives it a distinct look and feel.

This coin features a striking design that honors the first president of the United States, George Washington, and includes elements that symbolize the nation’s values and heritage. Although it lacks a mint mark (as noted), it was produced in the traditional style of the series that has endured since its inception. All in all, the 1977 Washington Quarter is a cherished collectible for numismatists and a beautiful representation of American coinage, valued at 25 cents but often worth more to collectors depending on its condition and demand.
