coins \ Coin \ United States of America \ 25¢ (Twenty Five Cents, Quarter) \ Washington Quarters \ 1946 \ Denver
Collectible coins, particularly within the context of United States currency, encompass a variety of types that appeal to numismatists. The 25-cent coin, commonly known as a quarter, specifically the Washington Quarter, was first issued in 1932 to commemorate the 200th anniversary of George Washington's birth. The 1946 Washington Quarter, minted in Denver, holds significance as part of the series that transitioned from commemorative to standard circulation and features George Washington's portrait on the obverse and an eagle on the reverse. Collectors often seek specific mint marks, such as the 'D' for Denver, as they can affect the coin's rarity and value.
